A masterclass in ensamble mezcal, Bozal Ensamble brings together three wild and cultivated agaves into a single, seamlessly balanced expression from the storied valleys of Oaxaca.

Crafted under NOM 472 by master distillers Marcelino and Onofre Ortiz in Miahuatlan y Etla, Oaxaca, this mezcal is built from Espadin, Mexicano, and Barril agaves slow-roasted in an earthen pit oven, then crushed by a horse-drawn tahona wheel before fermentation and distillation in traditional copper pot stills.

• Nose: Inviting and bright with ripe pear, green apple, allspice, and a gentle ribbon of vanilla that signals the balance to come.
• Palate: Barril takes the lead with vibrant lime zest, stone fruit, and a grounding note of green pepper that keeps the palate intrigued.
• Finish: Long and warm with the viscous signature of Mexicano agave, closing on a soft mineral note that lingers beautifully.

Bozal Ensamble Mezcal shines equally well neat or in a Mezcal Negroni or Oaxacan Old Fashioned, where its layered complexity can anchor and elevate a cocktail without being overshadowed.

Best served neat or with a single large ice cube to open the aromas; a thoughtfully made ensamble mezcal from Miahuatlan y Etla, Oaxaca, drawing on Espadin, Mexicano, and Barril agave for uncommon depth at an approachable proof.
