Crafted with a blend of 85% heritage corn and 15% malted barley, SIERRA NORTE MEXICAN WHISKEY (PURPLE CORN) boasts a complex and alluring aroma of pepper, star anise, and a subtle nuttiness. On the palate, notes of stewed apple, red currant, and pomegranate are accompanied by background spices and a touch of caramel sweetness. The finish is long and full-bodied, with prominent clove flavors and a hint of red licorice. Distilled separately and aged in French oak casks, each variety of this ancient, flavorful Oaxacan corn is highlighted in Sierra Norte's masterful whiskey by Master Distiller Douglas French's passion for showcasing unique and outstanding flavors.
