Bozal Castilla Reserva Metodo Ancestral Mezcal 104 Proof is a type of mezcal made from the Castilla variety of agave plant using the traditional "Metodo Ancestral" production method. This involves roasting the agave in an underground pit oven, crushing it with a stone mill, and fermenting and distilling the juice in clay pots. This process results in a mezcal with a distinct flavor profile that highlights the natural sweetness of the agave, along with smoky and earthy notes. This mezcal is aged for 18 months in American oak barrels, which adds complexity and depth to the flavor. At 104 proof, this mezcal is relatively strong and has a bold, intense character. Bozal Mezcal is known for its commitment to sustainable and traditional practices, and this mezcal is made in small batches with respect for the agave plant and the land. The "Reserva" designation indicates that this mezcal is a special reserve, crafted in limited quantities and held to the highest standards of artisanal quality.
