Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol
La Pulga Sotol
La Pulga Sotol is a joven sotol from Delicias, Chihuahua. La Pulga Spirits uses Dasylirion agave for this spirit. A shredder prepares the plant before copper distillation. The nose offers perfume notes with citrus and menthol hints. Lemon candy, cinnamon, and simple syrup define the palate. This soft profile leans closer to blanco tequila than mezcal. The thirty eight percent alcohol by volume throttles bright character. Clean and easy drinking, it remains a straightforward spirit with gentle agave flavors that appeal to those seeking approachable profiles.
