Bozal Tepeztate Mezcal Artesanal is a type of mezcal made from the Tepeztate variety of agave plant, which is native to the rocky slopes of Oaxaca, Mexico. This mezcal is handcrafted using traditional methods, including roasting the agave in an underground pit oven, crushing it with a horse-drawn tahona, and distilling the fermented juice in copper stills. The resulting mezcal has a complex flavor profile, with notes of smoke, pepper, and earth, along with a hint of sweetness. Bozal Mezcal is known for its commitment to sustainable and traditional practices, and this mezcal is no exception, made in small batches with respect for the land and the agave plant.
