Handcrafted by 5th generation Maestro Mezcalero Cosme 'Tucho' Hernandez Martinez, Mezcal de Leyendas Maguey Jabalí Oaxaca is an artisanal mezcal blanco. It's made from maguey 'Jabalí', an endemic agave variety from Oaxaca that's mostly grown in the wild.
The nose greets with complex spices and dried chiles. The well-balanced palate brings meaty flavors of overripe fruits. The finish is long, savory, and earthy.
The agave is first roasted in a stone pit, crushed by a tahona stone, fermented in oak wood vats, and finally distilled in traditional copper alembic stills. Tucho's palenque – an artisanal mezcal facility – is located in the mountains of the Sierra Madre del Sur in southwest Mexico near a natural spring of pristine water. Expect spicy aromas on the nose and meaty flavors of overripe fruits on the balanced palate.
