A rare and complex spirit

Made from wild Barril agave

El Jolgorio Barril is crafted from the Barril agave, a rare subspecies of the Karwinskii family that grows at high altitudes in Oaxaca. The Barril piña is known for its dense sugars and low water content, which results in a mezcal of great complexity.

Rich, earthy flavours with a delicate balance

This mezcal offers a unique combination of delicate sweetness, citrus notes, and a distinct mineral character. Its earthy profile is rounded out by subtle hints of light smoke, providing a layered and balanced tasting experience.

Traditional production methods

The agave is harvested after 12 years of growth in Santa Maria Zoquitlán, Oaxaca. It is roasted in a conical underground oven, ground by a horse-drawn tahona, and fermented in wooden vats made of sabin and pine using water from a nearby river. The mezcal undergoes double distillation in copper alembic stills, a process overseen by master mezcaleros Gregorio Hernandez, Ignacio Parada, and Valentin Cortes.

Bottled at 47% ABV, El Jolgorio Barril offers a robust and full-bodied drinking experience. Its depth and complexity make it perfect for sipping neat, allowing drinkers to fully appreciate its intricate flavours.

Enjoy this artisanal mezcal for its rarity, craftsmanship, and rich Oaxacan heritage.
