Dona Vega Tobala Mezcal 750 ml

Dona Vega Tobala Mezcal is a small-batch, artisanal mezcal made from wild tobalá agave. It is produced in the village of San Juan del Río, Oaxaca, Mexico, by a family of mezcaleros who have been making mezcal for generations. The tobalá agave used to make this mezcal is harvested from the wild and cooked in a traditional underground oven. The cooked agave is then crushed by a horse-drawn tahona and fermented in open-air vats. The mezcal is then double-distilled in copper stills. Dona Vega Tobala Mezcal has a smoky, earthy character with the delicate, fruity sweetness tobalá is prized for.

How to drink Dona Vega Tobala

Sip it neat in a small copita — tobalá is one of the more prized wild agaves, and this is a sipping mezcal, not a mixing one. Take your time with it, the way it took years for that agave to mature.
