The El Buho Tobala Espadin is an ensamble that blends the tobala agave and the espadin agave. Tobala plants do not grow very tall, often less than 1 meter. Spiders often live in these agaves and are considered good luck for money. The ensamble is a mixture of 85% wild tobala and 15% of cultivated espadin aged in stainless steel for six months.
