La Higuera Wheeleri Sotol (44.7%)

La Higuera Wheeleri Sotol is an artisanal, wild-harvested Mexican spirit crafted by Master Sotolero Gerardo Ruelas using wild Dasylirion wheeleri plants harvested in Chihuahua. Pit-cooked in an outdoor conical oven, hand-milled with axes, naturally fermented in pine wood vats, and double-distilled in copper pot stills, it delivers a deeply herbaceous, earthy, and round profile.

Food Pairing: Grilled meats, roasted vegetables, aged cheeses, smoked pork, or savory tacos.

Tasting Notes : Crystal clear in appearance with a round, smooth, and medium-bodied mouthfeel.

Nose : Earthy smoke, herbal mint, fresh thyme, sage, and subtle eucalyptus.

Palate : Complex herbaceous flavors combined with sweet roasted sotol, tropical fruit undertones, leather, and smoke.

Finish : Long, warm, and dry with lingering herbal spice, light smoke, and earthy minerality.

Serve : Serve neat at room temperature in a glass tasting vessel or traditional copita.
