LA VENENOSA Raicilla 'Tabernas Ancestral' - Jalisco, Mexico 100% Agave Bottle (70cl) 44.9%abv ADF

Description

Made in Jalisco, Mexico, but falling outside the Tequila denomination, La Venenosa Raicilla follows a distilling tradition that is nearly 500 years old. Created by “Chef” Esteban Morales, La Venenosa showcases the many varieties of agave and distillation techniques native to Jalisco. Esteban traversed the state in search of the best producers in each region. Every one of these Raicilla expressions is unique; created by different Maestro Taberneros in distinct regions, from different species of agave using diverse techniques, the individual results are astounding.

La Venenosa Tabernas Raicilla is an ancestral agave spirit crafted from the Chico Aguillar and Lechuguilla varieties. It offers aromas of orange peel, oregano and green apple, with notes of cinnamon and resinous spices on the palate, giving way to a subtle hint of lemongrass. Each bottling in the La Venenosa range is sourced from a single small-scale distillery, or taberna, in Jalisco, Mexico. While the state is known for its tequila production, Raicilla has been made in Jalisco for 500 years using a diverse array of agave varieties and distillation techniques.
