Escarabajos Raicilla
Lobo de la Sierra Raicilla
Lobo de la Sierra Raicilla Joven presents a bright profile defined by herbal notes and distinct acidity. The nose offers sweet fruit alongside pine needle and faint smoke, while the palate delivers cracked black pepper, guava, and orange peel. This spirit balances floral water with a subtle lactic finish, creating a medium viscous texture that feels rich yet integrated. The high alcohol content provides structure without harshness, allowing the characteristic raicilla funk to remain present but restrained. It stands as a refined example of this regional agave distillate, showcasing its unique mineral and citrus-driven character.
