Review #1433 | Mezcal Review #73

Distiller: Bozal

Bottler: Bozal

Brand: Bozal

Selection: N/A

ABV: 52.8% ABV

Age: NA

Nose: Sweet sweet cream, confectioners sugar, pineapple and mango. Star fruit, light pepper. Bright, fruity, loads of character.

Taste: Sweet and funky – lots of mango, pepper, pineapple and apple. Heat grows over time but is well behaved. Excellent mouth feel. Mildly sour over time with some agave stank, vinegar and then a rebound to sweet fruits and pepper.

Finish: Long, loaded with pepper, clay, brisket meatiness, fruits and cotton candy. Bright, fruity then sweet then savory.

Overall: Magnificent. Everything about this is hitting just right, which is shocking given the price. I love this.

Thanks for reading!
