Another Freaking Gringo Looking for Jabali…

Episode 18 Published 5 years, 7 months ago
Description

For hundreds of years, mezcaleros believed that you could not use maguey jabali (agave convallis) to make spirits — it foams so much, both during fermentation and distillation, that it was thought unmanageable. But a couple decades ago, someone found a strategy to manage the foaming. Now gringos go crazy looking for the rare, wild destilado de jabali!  In this episode of Agave Road Trip, we speak with maestro Felix Angeles about his jabali strategy.
