XILA The Mexican Aperitif

Discover XILA The Mexican Aperitif, a truly unique agave liqueur that effortlessly blends bold creativity with feminine strength. XILA, meaning "Woman" in Zapoteco, is born from Flor de Luna Distillery, **the first micro-distillery and the first 100% women-run distillery in Mexico City. This pioneering spirit offers a fresh take on Mexican spirits, prioritizing depth of flavor, originality, and mindful enjoyment.

XILA is a low-alcohol, low-sugar spirit that is exceptionally rich in flavor and complexity. Every sip delivers a symphony of rich and complex flavors, characterized by a warm, sweet-and-spicy profile that invites rather than burns.

Organoleptic Characteristics:
NOSE: Upon opening, enchanting aromas of lavender and hibiscus flower captivate the senses.
PALATE: A symphony of spices unfolds, with harmonious notes of cloves, black pepper, and cinnamon dancing alongside the sweetness of caramelized pineapple.
FINISH: The conclusion reveals the warmth and smokiness of ancho chile, providing a memorable and lingering sensation that calls for another sip.

Crafted with seven carefully selected and hand-picked ingredients, including Young Espadín agave grown for seven years in Oaxaca, XILA's artisanal process involves personally caramelizing pineapple for notes of caramel and piloncillo, and de-veining ancho chili to impart a mild spiciness. The process includes 7 days macerated, 7 days resting, and 7 times filtered to ensure consistent quality.

Suggested Uses & Pairings:
XILA is smooth enough to be sipped on the rocks, yet bold enough to shine in cocktails. Enjoy it simply mixed with tonic or sparkling water, or explore signature cocktails like the Spicy Rico Spritz or the Xila Margarita. XILA transforms ordinary moments into something vibrant and memorable, perfect for winding down after a long day or hosting friends. It's about drinking with intention—more creativity, more awareness, and with a ton of Mexican soul.
