Gozona Tobaziche

Tobaziche in refrescador – leaner than the Gozona house style

Score: 3.8/5 agaves

Gozona Tobaziche bottle
  • Producer: Gozona
  • Maestro: Sergio Juarez Patricio
  • Region: San Agustín Amatengo, Oaxaca
  • Agave: Tobaziche
  • ABV: 50.7%
  • Price: $70 ($$)

Verdict

Not every refrescador bottle is a heavy-weight, this one's a welterweight. Gozona's tobaziche is lighter on its feet than the san martinero, cleaner than the barril chino, and makes a decent case for the full karwinskii flight. Buy if you're building the set, otherwise buy the san martinero first.

Tasting notes

Nose: Cut grass. Then lime zest, white pepper, wet stone

Palate: 50.7% and refrescador; the tobaziche karwinskii comes through bright and saline. Leaner than the san martinero, a little less textured, but still well-built

Finish: Mineral, dry. Long

The bottom line

Buy if building a karwinskii set
