The latest in a family of mezcaleros that goes back six generations (as far as they can recall), Everardo makes his mezcals in the artisanal style. His tobalá is among the best treatments of this agave that we know of —its deep minerality, characterized by notes of tobacco and caramel, is achieved by letting the cooked agave sit for up to one month prior to distillation—a family secret that’s been passed down for, well, who knows how long.
