Description
Xicaru's Tobalá mezcal honors the late maestro mezcalero Fernando Santibañez. His work and dedication to mezcal continue to inform this tribute. Tobalá agave is the foundation of the spirit, carrying the variety's character into an artisanal mezcal rooted in Mexico's mezcal culture. Earth, fruit and smoke provide the central threads in the glass.
Roasted agave and earthy minerals open the nose. Subtle smoke meets herbal notes, wildflowers and citrus blossom. The palate begins with earth and minerals, followed by smoke. Ripe pear and pineapple add fruit alongside the herbs. A silky texture carries gentle warmth, while smoke remains through the long finish.
Pour neat at room temperature and let it rest briefly in the glass. Serve sliced oranges with salt and chili alongside for a citrus and spice accompaniment.
