Del Maguey Wild Jabali Mezcal

Detailed Description

Mezcal from the absolutely fantastic Del Maguey range, made using the Jabalí agave. You might be unfamiliar with Jabalí, as it’s not frequently used in Mezcal production. Its name translates to “Wild Boar”, and it was named this because the pointy bits of the agave (which you may know from their scientific name – “leaves”) look like the teeth of a boar.

Distillery Information

Del Maguey (pronounced ma–gay) Single Village Mezcal was founded in 1995, and they’ve been one of the most innovative and trail-blazing international spirits brands since. Their founder, Ron Cooper, is largely credited for the current growing popularity of Mezcal on the international market. His dedication to Mezcal and the country of Mexico, where Del Maguey is produced, has helped to dispel many of the worm-in-bottle and other negative stereotypes that surrounded Mezcal for years.
