It combines with moles, adobos, spicy seafood, pibil or havanero.” Tobalá is a very small wild type of maguey found in the mountains s...

Producer notes: "Emigdio distills outside of Miahuatlán de Porfirio Díaz. We are very proud and excited to have finally found a mezcalero from this area we can put in a Vago bottle. … The palenque sits at around 4,970 ft., among gently rolling hills and shallow arroyos in an arid climate.
