Ojo De Tigre Mezcal Artesanal Joven
Artesanal Mezcal | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL | Oaxaca & Puebla, Mexico | Espadín & Tobalá Agave Blend

Process & Profile

Ojo De Tigre Mezcal Artesanal Joven is an approachable yet authentic mezcal crafted using a blend of sustainably sourced Espadín agave from Oaxaca and Tobalá agave from Puebla. The agave hearts are roasted in traditional earthen pits, crushed by tahona, and naturally fermented before being double-distilled in small copper stills. This artisanal process captures the essence of both regions’ agave expressions—Espadín lending sweetness and smoke, while Tobalá adds herbal depth and minerality. Bottled joven (unaged), it reflects the purity and craftsmanship of true Mexican mezcal.
