Bozal Ensamble Mezcal is a bold, artisanal spirit that captures the untamed beauty of Mexico’s wild agave. Crafted using a traditional ensamble (blend) of three agave varieties—Espadín, Barril, and Mexicano—this mezcal delivers a layered, earthy complexity with a rich smokiness that speaks to its ancestral roots. Produced in small batches using age-old methods including pit roasting, stone milling, and copper pot distillation, Bozal Ensamble is a true celebration of craftsmanship and terroir.
Available now at Whiskey Caviar, it’s an adventurous pour for mezcal lovers and spirits connoisseurs looking to explore the wild side of agave.
