Bozal Tobala Reserva Mezcal 750ml
Product Description
Wine Enthusiast Top 100 Spirits of 2019
Bright and fresh, this single maguey mezcal offers fruit-forward aromas of melon and apricot. A delicate balance of citrus and earthy flavors coat the palate followed by smoky undertones. The finish is clean with intense tropical fruits. A small agave varietal, the Tobalá, a subspecies of the Potatorum Family of agave, has broad, spade-like leaves. The compact size of this agave yeilds limited quantities of mezcal and takes 12-15 years to reach full maturation. Known to many as the king agave, Tobalá can only grow from seed and is becoming increasingly rare. This agave offers intensely aromatic mezal with complex notes of tropical fruit.

Expert Reviews
The savory aroma suggests tomato water and lemon, with a faint hint of fresh basil. The palate skews less savory and more toward a mellow, almond flavor profile. It’s pleasing nonetheless, with a drying finish that delivers a lemon-pepper tang and a hint of saline.
