Before their work, the accepted wisdom was that Jabalí—which tends to foam during distillation and can literally blow up the still—could not be made in batches large enough for commercial release. Using only the implements at hand and a creative new approach, Rey Campero managed to bypass this issue, and subsequently, this new method for distilling Jabalí has spread like wildfire throughout Oaxaca’s mezcalero community.
