LUCHA LIBRE® MEZCAL TOBALÁ
“Tobalá” is a Zapoteco word that means aromatic or hot maguey (agave). Our Tobalá agaves grow wildly for 12 years in high altitude mountains and canyons, providing a very special terroir. Lucha Libre® mezcal Tobalá is rare and exceptional and is especially flavorful and aromatic. In our experience this mezcal offers dreams of Tobalá agaves that for 12 years grew wildly in the mountains and canyons with the sun, the rain and the stars. Acknowledging Tobalá agaves are rare, our production is artisanal, limited and in small batches.
