Antilope Mezcal Tobala

Antilope Mezcal Tobalá is an exceptional expression of mezcal crafted by Antilope, a distinguished mezcal brand rooted in the rich traditions of Oaxaca, Mexico. This mezcal specifically highlights the Tobalá agave, a rare and sought-after varietal known for its unique and complex flavor profile.
The Tobalá agave, also referred to as Agave potatorum, is a wild species of agave that grows in the high-altitude mountainous regions of Oaxaca. It is renowned for its smaller size and delicate, pineapple-like piñas (hearts), which yield a limited quantity of sweet, aromatic juice. Harvesting Tobalá agave requires great care and expertise, as it can take up to 12 years for the plants to reach maturity.
Antilope Mezcal Tobalá showcases the nuanced and captivating flavors that can be derived from this exceptional agave varietal. The mezcal is meticulously produced using traditional methods, including cooking the piñas in earthen pit ovens, crushing them by hand, fermenting the juice naturally with wild yeasts, and distilling the liquid in copper pot stills. These artisanal practices result in a mezcal that captures the essence and character of the Tobalá agave.
Upon tasting Antilope Mezcal Tobalá, you’ll encounter a sensory journey of complex aromas and flavors.
