Description
Estancia Raicilla is a distinctive agave spirit crafted in the highlands of Jalisco from the renowned Agave maximiliana. Our process begins by cooking the agave piñas for two days in above-ground ovens made from red clay, imparting a unique character to the spirit. Once cooked, the piñas are crushed and left to naturally ferment in open oak barrels and clay amphoras, using wild yeast to develop their complex flavors.
The resulting Raicilla offers a delicate balance of floral and vegetal notes, with fruity hints of citrus, pear, and plum. Known for its fragrant aroma and versatility, Estancia Raicilla de la Sierra stands apart from its agave cousins, tequila, and mezcal, making it an exceptional choice for sipping or mixing into creative cocktails.
