Bozal Mezcal Sacatoro Reserva Ancestral 750ml

Experience the distinctive character of Bozal Mezcal Sacatoro Reserva Ancestral, a limited-release mezcal showcasing the rare Sacatoro agave and traditional ancestral production techniques. Sacatoro is a subspecies of Agave angustifoliathat can take approximately seven to nine years to mature. It is known for its earthy, smoky and floral characteristics.

Produced in San Juan Bautista Jayacatlán, Oaxaca, this Reserva is made using the Ancestral Method, including traditional clay pot distillation. Bozal's ancestral process begins with agave hearts cooked in earthen pit ovens, followed by crushing with a tahona and open-air fermentation using naturally occurring yeast.

On the nose, Bozal Sacatoro Reserva offers vegetal aromas with prominent minerality and hints of orange zest. The palate develops layers of roasted agave, sweet paprika and tropical fruit, followed by a mellow finish with a subtle chili spice. The traditional clay pot distillation contributes to its earthy, expressive and terroir-driven character.

This Bozal Sacatoro Reserva Ancestral is an excellent choice for mezcal collectors and enthusiasts seeking a distinctive wild-agave expression with rich earthiness, roasted agave, minerality, tropical fruit and gentle smoke.
