Bozal Chino Verde 750 ml

Bozal Chino Verde is a mezcal from the Bozal portfolio built around one of Mexico's smaller-known wild or semi-wild agave varieties, part of the brand's broader mission to bring lesser-seen palenques and maguey types to a wider audience rather than sticking to espadín. As with the rest of the range, production follows traditional methods: pit-roasted agave, open-air fermentation, and distillation on-site by the palenquero, bottled unaged so the raw agave and smoke character comes through. Expect an earthy, vegetal edge alongside the usual mezcal smoke, distinct from a more citrus-forward espadín bottling. A pick for drinkers already comfortable with mezcal who want to explore a specific, less common maguey.

How to drink Bozal Chino Verde

Take it neat in a copita to taste the specific agave this bottling is built around. Keep mixers out of it — single-varietal mezcal like this is meant to be sipped, not diluted.
