Montelobos Tobalà Mezcal is an unaged joven expression that starts with organic tobalá agaves that are free of pesticides and herbicides. Once the piñas (hearts) of the agaves are harvested, they are roasted in volcanic stone pits underground for 5 to 7 days. After the cooked piñas are cut and milled, the agave nectar ferments in open-air pine vats for 7 to 10 days. Finally, the liquid is double-distilled through copper stills. Bottled unaged at 96.3 proof, the mezcal features a complex taste profile with a balance of fresh citrus, green pepper, fruit, herbs, and dried fruit with a touch of spice and smoke. Recently, Montelobos Tobalà won a Gold Medal at the 2022 edition of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGrab your bottle of this artisanal 100% tobalá mezcal today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Montelobos Mezcal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Montelobos was founded in 2011 by Iván Saldaña, a molecular plant biologist and distiller who used to work with two mezcal-producing families in Oaxaca and Puebla, Mexico. Partnered with Mezcalero Don Abel Lopez, they produce mezcal the artisanal way, abiding tradition and with sustainability in mind. They only use cultivated agaves that are grown organically, without any pesticides or herbicides. They also compost most of their waste and have improved the design of their palenque to minimize environmental impact. Montelobos or \"Wolf Mountain\" are partnered with the Wolf Conservation Center, a non-profit organization that is dedicated to the conservation of wolf populations in North America through its three-pronged mission of education, advocacy, and species recovery.
