It captures the pure, raw essence of local sugarcane in its most authentic form. This is bright, grassy, and full of terroir-driven character — a true representation of heritage Mexican cane spirits. Tasting Notes Nose: Fresh and vegetal with green sugarcane, cut grass, citrus zest, and a hint of tropical fruit.
