This Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal is distilled exclusively using Tobala, a variety of agave linked to truffles due to its rarity and its growing in the shade of oak trees at the highest altitude canyons.

This 'wild' variety of agave has broader leaves and is much smaller than other maguey. Consequently, more piñas are required to make the same quantity of mezcal.
