Bozal, Espadin/Barril Ensemble Mezcal, NV

Spirit from Mexico
by Bozal
$51.99
Taxes and shipping calculated at checkout.

An ensamble built on cultivated Espadin and wild-harvested Barril and Mexicano — the wild agaves are where the citrus and floral lift comes from, since they take many more years to mature and have to be found rather than farmed. Bozal works with individual mezcaleros in Oaxaca, in villages like San Dionisio Ocotepec and Ejutla de Crespo, and each label names the maker and the town behind that particular batch. Production is the artisanal method: agave roasted in an earthen pit, open fermentation, distillation in a copper pot still, bottled at 47%. Drink it neat and at room temperature, in a shallow copita, sipped slowly rather than shot.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Mole negro, tlayudas, grilled shrimp with chile, orange slices with sal de gusano, and dark chocolate.

Tasting Profile

Medium smoke rather than a bonfire. Roasted agave, green herbs, citrus peel and white pepper, with a warm, slightly viscous mouthfeel and a long peppery finish.
