Dos Boots Mezcal Ancestral Clay Pots Castilla 750ml - Introducing Dos Boots Mezcal Castilla Ancestral, a premium mezcal hailing from the municipality of Jayacatlan in the "Central Valleys" of Oaxaca. The Castilla agaves are painstakingly harvested by hand on hillsides situated at an elevation of approximately 4,000 feet, under the careful supervision of our Maestro Mezcalero, Israel Palestino, and his dedicated team.
This extraordinary mezcal utilizes the Ancestral production process, which is known for its labor-intensive methods that respect and preserve traditional mezcal-making techniques. The highly sought-after Castilla agave species lends a unique and exotic flavor that distinguishes Dos Boots Mezcal Castilla Ancestral from other mezcals.
Produced in limited quantities, this Ancestral Castilla Mezcal undergoes fermentation and distillation in clay pots. This process imparts a distinctive earthy flavor to the mezcal. At 100 proof, it remains a robust yet nuanced spirit, demonstrating the skillful balance achieved by our Maestro Mezcalero.

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.
