Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol
Los Cantiles 1905 Palmilla Ensamble
Los Cantiles 1905 Palmilla Ensamble is a sotol and maguey blend from Northern Mexico. This 47 percent ABV spirit presents woody, dusty aromas alongside dried corn husk and feedlot corn. The palate offers sweet, starchy corn notes distinct from sour profiles. Further scents include mint, wet leaves, leather, and burnt sage. Roasted almonds and crystallized ginger emerge later in the finish. The texture displays enormous density and flavor presence. This ensemble captures the unique character of dasylirion spirits with robust earthy elements and floral undertones.
