Tobaziche Mezcal

Tobaziche (Agave karwinskii) carries the brightest aromatic register in the karwinskii family. Where barril and madrecuishe run heavy and savory, tobaziche pushes herbal, almost minty – the lifted top note in three-plant karwinskii ensambles. Solo tobaziche bottlings are rare; Mezcalosfera, NETA, and a small handful of Mal Bien single-maestro Miahuatlán releases lead the conversation. The agave needs proof to read fully; below 47% the aromatic register goes thin.
