Del Maguey 100% Wild Jabali – Santa Maria Albarradas Mezcal (750ml / 45%)
Description
Jabali (A. convallis) is a notoriously challenging plant with which to work. At every step of the production process the skilled palenquero have to use all their skill. For example, after roasting the plant a foam will form due to high quantities of a chemical compound that naturally occurs in agave. Thus, it is no surprise that Del Maguey Wild Jabali comes to us from the talented hands of the producer of our Tobala, Tepextate and Espadin Especial.
A mezcal not made from Espadin is a true treat and shows the diversity of the spirit. So many nuanced, complexities are revealed when compared side by side. A must.
TASTE: Bright, beautiful acidity with high florals of sweet violets, herbal notes of tarragon and a slight sandalwood finish.
ENJOY: Sipped slowly. Take your time and “kiss” this mezcal. Look past the alcohol and unlock a hidden world of agave goodness
