MEXICO

Tasting notes (from the distillery): Aromas of cornbread, toasted corn, vanilla and caramel, with a palate bursting with flavors of sweet corn perfectly balanced with toasted notes of roasted corn, vanilla and caramel.

A note from the distillery: Nixta Licor de Elote is a Mexican corn liqueur made from a base of tender, ancestral cacahuazintle (kaka • wha • SINT • lay) maize, grown in the high valleys and foothills of the Nevado de Toluca volcano. Nixta is produced at the Destilería y Bodega Abasolo, where we honor the Mexican culture of corn and the ancestral craft of nixtamalization—a 4,000 year old Mesoamerican cooking technique that uncovers the deepest flavors and aromas of maize.
