This Whisky Single Barrel 85% Maiz Amarillo NB 70cl from Sierra Norte stands out for its authentic and territorial expression. Produced with 85% yellow corn, a variety cultivated in the highlands of the Sierra Norte territory, it expresses a rich and enveloping character, the result of artisanal distillation that enhances the local raw material. The aging takes place in selected barrels, giving the distillate a well-defined aromatic complexity, with hints of toasted cereals, honey, vanilla, and light spices.

The bright amber color anticipates a smooth and warm tasting experience, with sweet notes balanced by light smoky touches. On the palate, an elegant persistence emerges that recalls dried fruit and a delicate hint of aromatic herbs, making this single barrel a unique and enveloping whisky.

Perfect to enjoy neat or with a splash of water, it pairs well with roasted meat dishes or aged cheeses, enhancing the connection with the Sierra Norte territory.
