Tasting Notes

Abasolo, a whisky that transports you straight to the heart of Mexico. Crafted from 100% Cacahuazintle corn, a portion goes through the ancient nixtamalization process, giving it a distinctive depth of flavor. The other portion is malted, adding a layer of richness. Imagine the aroma of roasted corn mingling with buttery popcorn and verdant vegetal notes, leading to hints of vanilla, toffee, and tinned peaches, complemented by earthy black tea, floral honey, and new leather. On the palate, an initial tannic bite mellows into a harmonious blend of corn notes, milk chocolate, soft vanilla, and oak char, with undertones of baked apple, caramel, and salted butter. The finish lingers like a delightful scoop of chocolate and vanilla ice cream, with a sprinkle of salted popcorn and a hint of orchard fruit. Sip it neat or craft cocktails with this exquisite Mexican whisky.
