Estancia Raicilla Blanco

Our Raicilla is made from the distillation of fermented musts of Agave maximiliana, which take 6-8 years to ripen in the high altitude regions of the Sierra Madre Occidental. With a 400 year history in Mexico, our artisan spirit highlights the floral characteristics of the Maximiliana agave, commonly known as Lechuguilla. From the root or “piña” of the Lechuguilla surface a bouquet of light citrus and floral aromas that are joined by notes of hibiscus, beach plum and pineapple. In comparison to its agave cousins, Tequila and Mezcal, Raicilla is considered the most fragrant and fruity.
