Tosba Cenizo Mezcal is a unique release because Agave durangensis is not native to the state of Oaxaca where Mezcal Tosba is produced. Edgar and Elisandro, the cousins behind Mezcal Tosba, drove 1500 miles from Nombre de Dios, Durango to their palenque in San Cristobal Lachirioag, Oaxaca with a truck full of Maguey Cenizo (Agave durangensis). The agaves were grown in the rugged terrain of the state of Durango. After being transported to Oaxaca, they were cooked, fermented, and distilled using the wild yeasts and local spring water from Oaxaca’s Sierra Norte region to create this unique batch.
Mezcal Tosba is a microbusiness founded by two cousins from San Cristóbal Lachirioag, Oaxaca, México. In the year 2000, as migrants living in Silicon Valley, California we were inspired and influenced by the entrepreneurial spirit that surrounded us. Concerned by the increasing migration from our home region of Cajonos-Villa Alta in the Sierra Norte mountains, we decided to form a business that would rescue the disappearing mezcal production and bring economic opportunity to the area.
