Elegant El Jolgorio Mexicano Mezcal Gift Ready [qGzouwDT]

Although it is a genetic relative to agave Espadín, the most common agave used in mezcal production, agave Mexicano is less prevalent and, thus, is rarely used to produce mezcal. Like Espadín, it grows to be large, with a high concentration of sugars. Its broad, serrated leaves, or pencas, often bear black tips. In some Zapotec dialects, this agave is called ‘doba-daan’ or ‘dob-daiin’.
