Nixta Licor De Elote (750Ml)

Description

You get a liqueur that feels deeply connected to Mexico’s roots. This Mexican corn liqueur is made from Cacahuazintle maize, an heirloom, non-GMO corn grown in the high valleys near the Nevado de Toluca volcano. Producers use a 4,000-year-old technique called nixtamalization to cook and soak the kernels, which brings out richer, deeper flavors. Destilería y Bodega Abasolo crafts it in Jilotepec de Abasolo, the same distillery known for its Mexican whisky.

You’ll taste a clear corn-forward profile as soon as you sip it. Sweet and savory notes blend together, giving you flavors of roasted corn, cornbread, vanilla, caramel, buttered popcorn, and toasted nuts. Piloncillo, an unrefined Mexican cane sugar, adds earthy sweetness and a warm caramel tone. With an ABV of 30%, it stays smooth and approachable. Its straw-gold color and the bottle’s corn-inspired design make it stand out on any shelf.

You can enjoy it neat or over ice when you want something comforting and silky. Its velvety texture coats your palate in a satisfying way. If you love mixing drinks, you’ll find it works beautifully with tequila, mezcal, or even whiskey in cocktails like an Old Fashioned.
