Bozal Mezcal — Wild Agave, Artisanal Production, Uncompromising Character

Bozal Mezcal is named after the wild agave plants that grow untended in the hillsides of Oaxaca and Guerrero — plants that take decades to mature and produce mezcal of remarkable depth and complexity. Each expression in the Bozal lineup showcases a different agave variety, from the widely grown espadin to the rare and prized tobalá, tepeztate, and unique ensamble blends.

Bozal is committed to preserving traditional production methods: underground pit roasting, stone milling, open-air fermentation in wood or leather, and small copper-pot or clay-pot distillation. The results are mezcals with unmistakable terroir — smoky, earthy, herbal, and endlessly complex.

The Bozal Lineup

The Bozal Ensamble blends multiple agave varieties for a layered, nuanced profile. The Tobalá expression showcases wild, rare agave with distinctive floral and mineral notes. The Espadin is the most approachable entry point, while specialty releases explore single-village and single-producer expressions. Each bottle is an education in agave diversity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bozal Mezcal known for?

The Ensamble blends multiple agave varieties for layered complexity; the Cuishe is a single-varietal expression made from the wild Cuishe agave, known for a distinctly herbal, vegetal character.

Is Bozal Mezcal considered artisanal?

Yes — it's typically produced in small batches using traditional methods like clay-pot or copper distillation, depending on the palenque.
