Taste/Aroma: Our exotic Mezcal Jabalí is a true experience for the senses. Its taste and aroma evoke memories of lemongrass, anise, eucalyptus and herbal aromas, which are complemented by a slightly smoky note of bacon. Aromas of slate, mint and oriental spices follow on the palate, accompanied by a mineral note. The gentle and elegant finish is a long-lasting reminder of the unforgettable taste of Jabalí.

The Agave Jabalí (Agave convallis Trel) is considered the most exotic of all mezcals. Unlike Tepeztate agave mezcal, whose eccentricity lies largely in the scarcity and slow ripening time of this endangered plant, Jabalí agave is a type of wild agave that spreads throughout Oaxaca's mezcalero strip. Although Jabalí agave is relatively abundant, there are few Maestro Mezcaleros who know the secret of agave selection and processing to produce this mezcal. The Jabalí agave is the most difficult agave to process because it foams heavily and requires three to four distillations due to its lower sugar content. Jabalí means wild boar and gets its name from the pointed, curved leaves that resemble wild boar teeth. There are stories of maestro mezcaleros who harvested an entire field of Jabalí agaves and couldn't produce even a drop of edible mezcal. Luckily, our Maestro Mezcalero knows the secrets passed down through generations and learned from years of tradition to create this rare and mystical Mezcal.

Some people believe that it is impossible to get mezcal from this rare species of agave. Instead, the Agave Jabalí is often used to make high-quality ropes from its leaves. However, few Maestro Mezcaleros know the secret ways to create one of the most fantastic and mystical spirits in the world. Our Mezcal Jabalí is the result of the craftsmanship of our Maestro Mezcalero, who has mastered the secret of the Jabalí agave. Try it out and experience the taste of the wild.
