About this bottle
Beverage Type: Sotol Blanco
Bottle Size: 750ml
ABV/Proof: 40% ABV (80 proof)
Country: Mexico
Region: Chihuahua
Producer/Brand: La Escondida
Base Material: Wild sotol plant (Dasylirion, “desert spoon”-not agave)
Still Type: Traditional artisanal distillation (exact still setup varies by producer)
Aging: Unaged
Additives: Dry-leaning style
Tasting Note:
La Escondida Sotol Blanco is bright, herbal, and desert-dry in the best way. Expect fresh-cut grass, minty lift, eucalyptus, and a gentle smoky edge, with white pepper and citrus peel snapping everything into focus. The palate stays clean and mineral, finishing long, slightly spicy, and mouthwatering. If tequila is “cooked agave sweetness,” sotol is more “high desert herbs + stone + air.”
How to use it:
Awesome neat with a little chill, but it really shines in cocktails: a Sotol Margarita, a Paloma riff, or a super-clean highball with soda and a big squeeze of lime. It’s also killer with salty snacks and anything off the grill.
