From the rugged highlands of Ciudad Madera, Chihuahua, Cardenxe Sotol de Sierra is a wild-harvested expression that captures the untamed essence of the Sierra Madre Occidental in every sip.


Produced at the Madera distillery and crafted entirely from Dasylirion Wheeleri, this Chihuahuan sotol is a testament to the region's centuries-old distilling heritage. The desert spoon plant, harvested from the rocky slopes of the Sierra Madre, lends this spirit its distinctly earthy, herbaceous character that sets sotol apart from all other agave-adjacent spirits.


  • Nose: Highly aromatic and boldly expressive, with deep earthy notes and a pleasantly punchy intensity that signals real character from the start.
  • Palate: Lush and vegetal with warm grasses, eucalyptus, and mossy forest floor leading the way, followed by a grounding nuttiness and subtle notes of dark earth and chocolate.
  • Finish: Refreshing and herbaceous, with a clean, green lift that lingers and invites another pour.

The vivid herbal and earthy profile of Cardenxe Sotol de Sierra makes it a compelling pour in a Sotol Paloma, where grapefruit brightens its green notes, or in a simple Sotol Highball with sparkling water and a squeeze of lime to let the terroir speak for itself.


Best enjoyed neat or over a large ice cube to let its full complexity unfold. Made from 100% Dasylirion Wheeleri sourced from Ciudad Madera, Chihuahua, this is an essential bottle for anyone exploring the world of premium Mexican spirits beyond mezcal and tequila.
