“Bacanora is the Agave Spirit Millennials have been looking for. It’s the missing link between Tequila and Mezcal. It tastes better than Tequila, but way friendlier than Mezcal. And we’re very, very into it.” – Bon Appetit, July 2015
Montelobos Tobalá is an unaged joven mezcal, crafted from meticulously cultivated agave, which is roasted underground, wild fermented and small batch, copper pot distilled to achieve a perfect balance of green agave, sweetness and subtle smoke.
This majestic ensemble comes from one of the appellation’s most undiscovered territories. It is also one to cherish as it represents a rare opportunity to explore an area with complex violence problems which make it hard to visit. Maestro mezcalero Cuauhtémoc Jaquez delivers a stunning ensemble with a blend of 3 different agaves: Tamaulipas endemic Funkiana and Univittata, together with Americana. The result is a high-energy spirit that feels sweet, dry and rich with multiple layers of flavor and aroma.
100% artisanal and sustainable Mezcal produced with Espadín agave from Oaxaca and Tobalá from Puebla.
Vamonos Riendo Mezcal is an ultra-premium, artesanal mezcal that combines ancient techniques and artistry to create an extraordinary handcrafted spirit. Vamonos Riendo is a high-altitude mountain mezcal sourcing a rare Tobala maguey that has been cultivated in the mountains for 14 years at 6,500 feet above sea level.
The high-altitude palenque allows them to distill at a lower temperature which prevents the burning away of their exquisite flavors and aromatics. They then triple distill to reveal remarkably bright flavor notes.
This particular batch was 8 tons; 4 of which were regular sized blue weber and 4 tons were criollo blue weber, all farmed and cultivated in Indaparapeo. Criollo are small heirloom agaves that have more sugar and flavor than their bigger counterparts. The aromas it gave off after cooking and the taste were amazing.
On the palate, the effect is sweet, with strong quince and anise features. Earthy flavor, on a background of herbs and roots.
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.
