Sombra Mezcal, made with agave Espadin, was initially exported to the United States in 2006 from San Juan and San Luis del Rio, regions renowned for their mezcal production. Since 2017, Sombra has been exclusively crafted at a company-owned palenque, with a focus on sustainability. The organic agaves are cultivated in the lofty mountains of San Juan del Rio, Oaxaca. Sombra is a popular choice for unique cocktails, although it can also be savored neat, offering a bright citrus note that warms the palate and concludes with a clean, fruit-driven finish.

In 2020, Sombra underwent a bottle design and label update to feature a vaso veladora, a common mezcal drinking vessel.
