Description
San Luis del Rio, Oaxaca, is home to Dos Hombres Tobalá. The producer uses Agave potatorum, cultivated for nearly 25 years. The hearts roast slowly in underground pits before a horse-drawn tahona mills them. Fermentation takes seven to ten days with mountain spring water. Two distillations in copper stills complete the process. The mezcal is bottled at 43% ABV.
Gentle smoke, earthy minerals and a light floral note open the nose. Ripe plum brings sweetness to the palate, followed by chocolate. Lily notes add a floral and slightly herbal element. Fruit and chocolate give the liquid richness, with smoke remaining part of the balance.
Serve neat at room temperature in a copita. Sip slowly, leaving time between tastes to consider the plum, chocolate and floral details.
