Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

The first sip of Bozal Espadin Barril Ensamble 750ml is like stepping into a smoky Oaxacan dusk, where wild agave aromas mingle with earthy minerality and a subtle hint of citrus zest. Crafted in Mexico, this mezcal blends Espadín and Barril agaves for a layered palate that balances roasted vegetal notes with whispers of green pepper and sweet tropical fruit. With an alcohol by volume of 47.00%, it delivers both intensity and finesse, making it the perfect companion for grilled pork or aged cheese, where its bold character can stand up to rich flavors while enhancing every bite.
