Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol
Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol H5
Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol H5 is an Extra Añejo sotol from northern Mexico. While the designation originated for tequila in 2006, this spirit belongs to a distinct category protected since 2002 across Chihuahua, Coahuila and Durango. It derives from the Dasylirion plant rather than agave, yet follows similar production rituals like roasting hearts in earthen pits. The Extra Añejo classification requires aging in small oak barrels for at least three years, ensuring significant wood influence. This label represents the longest-aged tier within its regulatory framework.
