Estancia Raicilla de la Sierra 750ml

The Wild Spirit of Jalisco's Sierra Madre

Estancia Raicilla de la Sierra is a window into one of Mexico's most captivating and least-understood spirits. Raicilla — a traditional agave distillate from the rugged Sierra Madre Occidental of Jalisco — predates modern mezcal regulations and carries centuries of indigenous craft in every bottle. Estancia's Sierra expression is made from wild agave harvested from the highlands, slow-roasted and distilled in small batches using time-honored methods that have changed little in generations.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Wild agave, pine resin, dried herbs, and a distinctive highland earthiness with hints of tropical fruit and a subtle floral lift
• Palate: Bold and untamed — roasted agave, green herbs, citrus peel, and a savory mineral quality unique to Sierra-grown plants, with a gentle smokiness that builds on the mid-palate
• Finish: Long and complex with lingering pine, earth, and a dry herbal fade that rewards patience
