About Mean Mule Distilling Co.
Mean Mule Distilling Co. is a family-operated, woman-owned agave spirit distillery and tasting room on Locust St in Kansas City. Every spirit is distilled in house from 100% organic blue Weber agave. The distillery says it was voted Kansas City's number one margarita and best cocktail program in 2025.
The still is a copper multi-plate column reflux still that the family built by hand in 2015. The agave is grown in Jalisco, Mexico. It ferments in stainless steel for a few weeks before distilling begins.
The tasting room serves cocktails built around those American agave spirits. You can order a guided tasting flight, a year-round classic or a seasonal drink. Syrups, infusions and juices are made by hand, and the cocktails are gluten free and vegan.
Wine, beer and mocktails are on the menu too. Dogs are welcome, and the room seats small groups only. The entrance, parking lot, restroom and seating are all wheelchair accessible.

Before you visit Mean Mule
Expect a cocktail bar built around agave, not a beer taproom. If agave spirits are new to you, a guided tasting flight is an easy way to start.
