AboutDestilería y Bodega Abasolo
Destilería y Bodega Abasolo makes Mexican maize whisky and liqueur in Jilotepec, at 7,800 feet. Restored farm buildings stand beside a modern structure inspired by traditional corn stores. The distillery buys cacahuazintle maize directly from farmers in the highlands of the State of Mexico. Its production draws on nixtamalization, the traditional practice of cooking corn in an alkaline solution.

An intense golden hue introduces a distinctly corn-led aroma of cornbread, toasted maize, vanilla and caramel. The palate balances sweet corn with deeper roasted notes, while a silky texture gives the liqueur breadth without obscuring its savoury detail. The finish is warm, gently sweet and persistent. Enjoy neat or over ice, or use a measured pour to add toasted depth to an Old Fashioned, coffee cocktail or dessert drink.
