The Essence of Tradition
Cabal Cabalgadura Mezcal Artesanal Joven embodies the essence of tradition. It all begins with 14-year-old Salmiana Agave, carefully selected from the arid landscapes of San Luis Potosí. These agave plants are cooked to perfection in a two-century-old brick and stone oven, which takes seven days. During this time, the agave absorbs the essence of steam through Sabine wood floors, imparting a unique character to the final product.
Craftsmanship Meets Innovation
Craftsmanship meets innovation in the making of Cabal Cabalgadura Mezcal Artesanal Joven. After the slow cooking process, the agave is macerated using a Roman concrete double tahona, ensuring every drop of flavor is extracted. This is followed by fine-tuning with a single tahona stone, further enhancing the mezcal's profile. The juices are then directed through copper grates into open-air vats for natural fermentation, ignited by pulque from the same Salmiana agave.
A Flavorful Journey
Prepare for a flavorful journey with Cabal Cabalgadura Mezcal Artesanal Joven. This meticulously crafted mezcal boasts a bright and vegetal nose characterized by notes of green bell pepper, fresh-cut grass, and lemon peel. The first sip is a refreshing experience, with hints of olive, fresh Serrano pepper, and a creamy mouthfeel. The journey culminates in a lingering finish of zesty lemon zest and the subtle heat of green poblano pepper.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
