Bozal Borrego Mezcal
Bozal Borrego Mezcal is a rare and deeply expressive spirit crafted from wild-foraged agave, offering a window into the most traditional and untamed side of mezcal production. Bozal has built its reputation on sourcing extraordinary agaves from remote corners of Mexico, and Borrego is a prime example of that commitment.
The Borrego expression draws its name and character from agave varieties harvested in the rugged highlands of Oaxaca, where small-batch artisanal production methods have been passed down through generations. Bozal mezcals are made using time-honored techniques including stone milling, open-air fermentation, and small copper or clay pot distillation, preserving the raw, earthy complexity that wild agave delivers.
- Nose: Expect a fragrant and wild aromatic profile with notes of roasted agave, dried herbs, and a whisper of smoke layered over green botanicals and earthy minerality.
- Palate: Rich and textured, with flavors of cooked agave, black pepper, dried fruit, and a savory vegetal depth that reflects the rugged terroir of its origin.
- Finish: Long and warming, with lingering smokiness, a touch of spice, and a clean mineral quality that invites another sip.
Bozal Borrego Mezcal shines when sipped neat or on a large rock, allowing its wild complexity to fully unfold. For cocktail lovers, it brings exceptional depth to a Oaxacan Old Fashioned or a smoky Mezcal Negroni.
Best enjoyed slowly at room temperature to honor the craftsmanship behind each bottle. Bozal Borrego Mezcal is produced from wild-harvested agave in the mezcal-producing regions of Oaxaca, Mexico.
