Yuu Baal Maguey Tobala Joven Mezcal 375ml

Yuu Baal Tobala Joven is a mezcal made from tobalá, a wild agave of the Oaxacan hills, from the Yuu Baal brand. Joven means it is bottled unaged, so the agave and the smoke from traditional roasting are what you taste. Tobalá is known for a sweeter, floral, fruit-leaning profile compared with espadín, with softer smoke and a mineral finish. The 375ml size makes it a good way to try a rare wild-agave mezcal without committing to a full bottle, and suits mezcal fans who like to sip and compare agaves.

How to drink Yuu Baal Tobala Joven

Sip it neat from a copita or small tulip glass, slowly, with orange slices if you like the traditional pairing. It is too distinctive for most cocktails.
