Description

400 Conejos Oaxaca Espadn Tobala Joven Mezcal is an artisanal, 100% agave mezcal produced from Espadnand Tobal agaves. It has been carefully selected for its quality and is then cooked in traditional cone-shaped wood ovens.

Mexico’s renowned state of Oaxaca, carefully selected Espadn and Tobal agaves are harvested and then cooked in traditional cone-shaped wood ovens. The wood is lit and volcanic rocks are placed on top of it in a pyramid shape. The oven is covered with cloth and earth and the pias are cooked for 3 to 5 days. Once cooked, the pias are milled using a stone pulled by a horse. The fermentation process then takes place in a wooden tub.

400 Conejos Tobala Mezcal is recommended straight, accompanied by worm salt (sal de gusano) or in your favorite cocktail to add a bit of smoke.
