RAICILLA NINFA

With centuries of history, techniques passed from generation to generation, Raicilla Ninfa is an artisanal spirit produced from the Maximiliana agave, endemic to the Mexican Sierra Madre. From the heart of the piñas comes a bouquet of slightly citric floral aromas, to which the contrast of smoky and sweet given by the processing give balance to a spirit that will take you on an extraordinary sensory journey. 

Ripe agaves are harvested on the slopes of the Sierra Madre, then cooked in earthen ovens using only local oak wood.After a minimum of 24 hours of cooking, the oven is hammered open and only the best part of the cooked agaves is chosen, which will then be hand-cut and placed in oak barrels for fermentation. When this is finished, the agave is transferred to the distillation still to become Raicilla. The whole process takes no less than a week; from a ton of agave you get about 80-100 l of finished product.

The Proyecto Nebulosa, promoted by Marcos Galindo, patron and master raicillero of Raicilla Ninfa, is an extraordinary opportunity for growth and development for the local people of Sierra Madre Occidental, focused on sustainable agriculture and economy of scale, study of nature and traditions, transformation of local products into beer, liquor, Raicilla and gastronomy, creating sustainable and cultural tourism .
