Mezcal Bosscal Joven

Mezcal Bosscal Joven is a Mezcal hailing from Mexico.

What is Mezcal Bosscal Joven?

Mezcal Bosscal Joven offers a unique twist on traditional mezcal production by incorporating wild fermentation, allowing native yeasts to work their magic and create complex, unexpected flavors. Interestingly, the brand takes sustainability to heart by repurposing the leftover agave fibers from production into biodegradable straws, turning waste into an eco-friendly product that's used in their tasting room and sold separately.

Why do we love Mezcal Bosscal Joven?

Mezcal Bosscal Joven stands out for its unique production process, which involves roasting agave hearts in underground ovens lined with river rocks and filled with mesquite and oak wood, imparting a distinctive smoky flavor. Cocktail enthusiasts will appreciate its complex profile, featuring notes of citrus, herbs, and minerals, as well as its use of sustainable, wild-grown Cenizo agave harvested at 12-15 years of maturity, resulting in a smooth and sophisticated spirit that shines in both classic and creative cocktails.

How do you drink Mezcal Bosscal Joven?

Mezcal Bosscal Joven shines when sipped neat at room temperature, allowing its complex smoky and herbal notes to fully unfold on the palate. This versatile spirit also excels in agave-forward cocktails or served over a large ice cube with a slice of orange, making it a perfect companion for warm summer evenings or pairing with grilled meats and rich, spicy dishes.

Mezcal Bosscal Joven is crafted using traditional methods, with agave hearts roasted in underground pit ovens for several days before being crushed, fermented, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. What sets this mezcal apart is the use of a unique yeast strain isolated from agave plants on the distillery grounds, lending a distinctive character to the final spirit.
