Tobala
A selection of wild agaves of the species Potatorum Zuuc, with 10 to 12 years of maturity, in a habitat with slopes and boulders, grown up over oak encino forests lands in an altitude of 1300 to 2200 meters above sea level. Given the low performance of the sugars and their rareness, the mezcal productions of this agave are very limited and unique.
Mezcal Characteristics
Artisanal process: Earth conical furnace cooking, traditional milling with a stone mill (tahona), natural fermentation in ocote tubs, double selective distillation in copper alembic.
Mezcal Master (Maestro Mezcalero): Armando Fabián Martínez
Tasting Notes
Scent: Is a crystalline mezcal, with perfumed scents of wild herbs in humid fields and light scents of maguey ́s honey with a slight smoked smell.
Taste: Soft and lasting, with fruity tastes, herbal spices and very balanced sweet cooked agave tastes with a long final.
