BOZAL MEZCAL ESPADIN-BARRIL MEXICANO (ENSAMBLE)
The Espadín agave, known as the genetic Mother of the Blue Weber Agave, is used to produce tequila, and is also the predominant agave used in mezcal production. Unique in itself, the characteristics of this agave showcase the aromas of wet earth, a rich smokiness on the mid-palate, and a finish reminiscent of wild flowers.
Barril
This thick-foliaged, wild agave, often used as fencing to divide land in Oaxaca, intensifies the complexity of this mezcal. As citrus and floral notes arise, hints of green peppers compliment the nose. The palate is a delightful balance of citrus and creamy banana.
Mexicano
The Mexicano agave thrives in the moist environment of lower elevations. This wild agave can grow quite large and is usually harvested when close to ten years of age. The concentration of sugar in the fully mature agave produces an extremely powerful mezcal. The palate is distinctively herbaceous and earthy with a long lasting finish in the mouth.

excellent
wonderful to find that my favorite bozal so far is also the least expensive one. the ensemble is an excellent blend. i find a strong note of sotol in it, common to the hacienda blanco sotol, and a strong "blue agave" "tequila" to it (whatever that's worth), along with the mezcal complexities. it's a clean, sharp, mezcal. i really like this and appreciate the fair price point.

Great mezcal!
Thyis is a very drinkable mezcal! It is by far well worth the price and compares favorably to bottles that cost more than twice as much. It is like finding a very nice campsite at the end of the day!

Favorite Mezcal
This is hands down my favorite Mezcal (enjoyed it more than: Del Maguey Vida and Monte Alban) ! Very good smokey taste that goes down extremely smooth. Unfortunately, it does not appear to be sold in IL anymore.
