Mezcal Bosscal Joven

About Mezcal Bosscal Joven

Mexico-made from 100% organic ingredients with an artisanal process. Bosscal Mezcal is produced by 4th generation Mezcalero Uriel Simental Enriquez and his right-hand distiller Alan Hernandez. They hand-select and use mountain-grown durangensis agaves and use only traditional and artisanal production methods.

The agave is wild grown, free of pesticides and hand-picked at age. Each plant is strategically picked with preservation in mind, ensuring the sustainabiliity of each harvest and ensuring a minimal environmental footprint.  They call this philosophy, "Mountain to Market."

Tasting Notes for Mezcal Bosscal Joven

On the nose, tropical fruit and herbs. Tastes of light smoke and citrus with a smooth finish. Light smoke; very crisp and smooth with citrus, orange, and blood orange with some tartness; well-balanced palate.

Selected as a recommended spirit to pair with Shaker & Spoon’s Mezcalloween III: A Shocker in Oaxaca Box.

Recommended by: Tony Abou-Ganim, who says: “Bosscal Joven is different from any other mezcal. Lightly smoky and soft with tropical fruits yet bright with citrus like mandarin and lemon zest, it has a very balanced palate. Enjoy it in a cocktail or neat—either way, you’ll find it long and pleasant with all those tropical fruits lingering with just a hint of smoke!”
