Whiskey Sierra Norte 85% Maiz Morando (70cl 45%) - crb

WHISKEY SIERRA NORTE 85% MAIZ MORADO

The Sierra Norte mountains, in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, are one of the world's biodiversity paradises. The pure waters that flow from the peaks allow the growth of an extremely varied flora and the development of an exceptional fauna. How exceptional it is that the farmers of this area are the direct descendants of the same farmers who grew the same corn 7000 years ago.

Distilling in Sierra Norte began when master distiller Douglas French decided to use ancient Oaxacan corn varieties to create a unique and extraordinary series of whiskeys. Each variety is distilled separately and matures in French oak barrels, until it possesses its own specific character.

Douglas, with his distillery, has managed to stem the emigration from this region towards urbanization in the big cities, recognizing a fair economic and cultural value to the ancestral corn, a cultivar which he has recovered even with great difficulty, and giving to local populations decidedly better living conditions. A sort of agro-patronage that makes every sip of Sierra Norte, as well as voluptuous on the palate, full of precious meanings for the future of our planet.

Purple corn, one of the most particular native cultivars, creates a long and complex meditation whiskey, albeit with a buttery and soft palate, capable of surprising.
