The Whisky Single Barrel 85% Maiz Blanco of Sierra Norte is a unique distillate that tells the story of the strength and purity of the white corn grown in high-altitude lands. This excellence comes from a traditional fermentation and distillation process, enhanced by the exclusive use of 85% white corn, which gives the product a full-bodied structure and a distinctive aromatic character.

The production area, located in the mountainous region of Sierra Norte, with its cool climate and temperature fluctuations, favors the development of complex and rich aromatic profiles. The aging in selected barrels enhances sweet and spicy notes, with hints of vanilla, caramel, and slight toasted aromas.

On the palate, it reveals a soft but enveloping texture, with a lingering finish that hints at earthy and fruity nuances. Ideal to enjoy neat or with a touch of water, it perfectly accompanies dishes based on roasted meat or aged cheeses.
