About La Reina Raicilla

La Reina is a raicilla de la sierra from Atenguillo, a town 1,655 meters up in the Sierra Madre Occidental of Jalisco. It is made mainly from agave maximiliana, a wild species that grows only from seed, so the team raises seedlings in its own nursery and replants them. Local rules allow only 10 percent of the region's agave to be harvested, and each plant rests about two more years after its quiote is cut to build sugar. The agave is roasted in an oven preheated for six hours, crushed by hand with wooden mallets in hollowed tree trunks and fermented open-air in oak barrels for seven days.
