On the steep precarious hillsides of Oaxaca, Guerrero and Durango varieties of agave, indigenous to the region, grow wild and are heavily sought after by the local mezcaleros. These varietals produce flavors that are exotically intense, with rich earth tones and savory smokiness. From the heart of the maguey these flavors are traditionally extracted to produce Mezcal that is wildly refined -because we at Bozal believe that something wild produces a far richer spirit.
Bozal 'Ensamble' is comprised of three different agave plants. The Espadín agave, known as the genetic Mother of the Blue Weber Agave showcases aromas of wet earth, a rich smokiness and wild flowers. Barril is a thick-foliaged, wild agave, often used as fencing to divide land in Oaxaca and has citrus and floral notes with hints of green peppers. The Mexicano agave thrives in the moist environment of lower elevations and is distinctively herbaceous and earthy. The result is a slightly smoky, yet herbaceous undertone that rests on the center of the palate, while spicy citrus and floral notes from the Barril are introduced and strengthened by the warm viscose finish of the Mexicano. This is a light and easy sipping Mezcal which will delight and surprise you with its complex lingering finish. -Distiller's Notes
