Bozal Mezcal Borrego Sacrificio 750ml

Bozal Borrego Sacrificio is a limited-release mezcal made like a pechuga, but with lamb, bottled at 50% ABV.

During the second distillation, a leg of lamb hangs in a basket inside the still, along with seasonal wild fruits and grains such as strawberries, apples, pineapple, pecans and ginger.

The vapours pass over the lamb and fruit, adding savoury depth and a fruity, herbaceous lift.

It shows smoky ash, sage and fruit, with hints of smoked lamb on the finish.

Borrego Sacrificio is part of Bozal's 'Sacrificio' series of celebratory distillations, and its tall, textured brown bottle makes it a rare find for collectors.
