Bozal Cuishe Mezcal 200ml

Bozal Cuishe Mezcal – Single Maguey (200 ml) Wildly Refined.

Discover the intense and captivating spirit of the Oaxacan highlands with Bozal Cuishe Mezcal. This small-batch, artisanal mezcal celebrates the unique and wild Cuishe agave (a subspecies of the Karwinskii Family) which thrives on the region\’s steep, rugged hillsides.

The Cuishe agave is notoriously difficult to harvest and work with, but its dense pia yields a spirit of exceptional complexity and character. The production honors a 200-year-old tradition: the agave hearts are roasted in earthen pit ovens, crushed by a stone tahona wheel, naturally fermented in open-air vats, and finally double-distilled in copper stills.

This 200 ml bottle is a perfect introduction to the untamed, rich flavors of a single-maguey mezcal that is truly expressive of its wild origin.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Intense aromas of citrus, particularly burnt orange, complemented by bright floral notes of honeysuckle and a pervasive minerality.
• Palate: The entry is dry and mineral-driven, quickly unfolding into layers of flavor. The mid-palate bursts with rich tropical fruit and a surprising undertone of sweet potato. It then shifts to pronounced green vegetal notes and a touch of jalapeo spice.
• Finish: A dry and savory smoky finish lingers, balanced by a clean, lasting minerality and a hint of wet stone.

A complex and highly enjoyable mezcal that showcases a vibrant balance between tropical sweetness, green herbaceousness, and a well-integrated, dry smoke.
