Description
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.
Agave
Coyote
Part of the American Oaxacensis agave family, the Coyote is particularly hard to find in the wild. Sourced from Villa Sola de Vega in Oaxaca, this agave is typically characterized by its herbaceous and earthy aromatics with a spicy finish.
Taste
A stunning expression of the unique character of the Coyote agave. An earthy and slightly smoky entry leads to a mid palate that is driven by flavors of minerality and rich dark chocolate. Finishes dry and balanced, indeed an enjoyable mezcal crafted for sipping.
