Koch Tobala

Oaxaca

Koch Tobala is a Joven mezcal produced by Mescalero Israel Palestino Cruz. This spirit presents gentle, sweet notes with a mild and pleasant profile that remains easy to drink. Aromatic hints include dusty, musty, and floral tones alongside rich fruitiness. The smoke presence is slight yet spritzes the agave character clearly. Subtle bitterness and sugary spice complement the earthy tobala base effectively. While the agave profile remains understated, the result is a warm and cozy drink that balances sweet greens with a clean finish for those seeking subtlety.
