Description
Introducing El Mero Mero Tobal, a premium mezcal made with maguey Tobala that is crushed by tahona, fermented in Encino Oak tubs, and distilled in copper. The arid region of San Dionisio Ocotopec, where this mezcal is made, is known for producing agave with high sugar content, which can come through in the flavor and complexity of the mezcal.
The limestone-rich soil of this region can be harsh on the maguey Tobala, which takes 12-15 years to reach maturity in this area. Due to the long maturation times, only small batches of 150-200 bottles of Tobala can be made simultaneously, making it a rare and exclusive find.
El Mero Mero is a brand deeply committed to quality and sustainability. Mezcalero Justino Garcia Cruz oversees all production, and the brand’s bottle label is designed by Carlos Zerpa, one of the most important Latin American contemporary artists. The surrounding mezcaleros are also starting to cultivate agave Tobala and Tepextate, promoting more sustainable production practices.
