Cecilia Rios Murrieta is a writer and founder of La Niña del Mezcal, a company that promotes awareness of artisanal mezcal in order to preserve the traditional production processes and position it as a premium spirit in international markets. Her passion for mezcal led her to establish one of the first blogs about Mezcal and the culture that surrounds it. After 9 years of venturing into Oaxaca for the first time, her travels have taken her across the country in search of all things agave, and today her portfolio includes mezcals from different regions of Oaxaca, Bacanora from Sonora, and a Sotol from Chihuahua.

Illustrator Ruby Taylor loves working with patterns and fun, modern colour palettes, as well as typography and lettering, and anything that smacks of vintage signage. Ruby works mostly on a mix of editorial illustrations and print, fashion, and stationary design, though she also paints murals and screenprints. You can find her online at ruby-taylor.co.uk.
