Bozal Mezcal - Tobasiche
Bozal Tobasiche Mezcal is a distinctive and highly regarded expression crafted from Agave karwinskii, known locally as "Tobasiche." This unique agave grows exceptionally tall and slender, often found in challenging, arid terrains, and imparts a singular character to the spirit. Through traditional pit-roasting, natural fermentation, and copper pot distillation, this mezcal beautifully captures the agave's inherent earthy, vegetal, and subtly savory qualities, offering a complex and robust sipping experience that speaks to its wild origins.
