Bozal Mezcal - Madrecuishe
Bozal Madrecuishe Mezcal is a highly revered and distinct expression crafted from the wild Agave karwinskii, known locally as "Madrecuishe." This agave is recognized for its unique, tall, slender trunk and its preference for growing in rugged, hillside terrains. Through traditional pit-roasting, natural fermentation, and copper pot distillation, this mezcal meticulously preserves the agave's inherent earthy, green, and mineral-driven characteristics. The result is a vibrant, complex, and intriguing spirit that truly embodies the wild landscapes from which it originates.
