Fosforo Tobala Ensamble Mezcal 86PF
From the highlands of San Nicolas Huajuapan, Puebla, Fosforo Tobala Ensamble Mezcal is a rare expression that captures the wild, floral soul of the tobala agave in its purest form. Master Distiller Aaron Alva Sanchez has crafted a spirit that defines the house style: layered, expressive, and unmistakably Fosforo.
Rooted in traditional Pueblan craft, this mezcal begins with tobala agave slow-roasted in underground earthen pits for five to eight days, unlocking deep complexity before a ten-day to two-week open-air fermentation. The wash is then double distilled, honoring the time-intensive methods that have long distinguished San Nicolas Huajuapan as a source of exceptional artisanal mezcal.
- Nose: Bright citrus, white flowers, and early springtime aromatics that are clean, lifted, and inviting.
- Palate: A rich yet approachable combination of papaya, white pepper, and pear skin, leading into the signature lingering full-mouth feel that characterizes the Fosforo tobala house style.
- Finish: Long and gently warming, with floral and tropical echoes that fade slowly and cleanly.
Fosforo Tobala Ensamble Mezcal shines in a Mezcal Negroni, where its floral brightness lifts the bitter botanicals beautifully, and it holds its own in an Oaxacan Old Fashioned as a Pueblan counterpart with serious character.
Best enjoyed neat in a wide-mouthed copita to let the aromatics fully open, or over a single large ice cube if preferred. A tobala ensamble mezcal from San Nicolas Huajuapan, Puebla, crafted by Aaron Alva Sanchez for those who seek depth without compromise.
