El Hispano - Habanero Liqueur - 30%
El Hispano is a brand of Mexican liqueurs produced by the family-owned Casa Tarasco distillery. The distillery has been operating since 1907 and specializes in the sugarcane distillate known as "Charanda." These liqueurs are inspired by ancestral recipes, passed down and modernized, initially intended for family or local consumption. They are bottled for the first time for BBC Spirits after an on-site tasting.
El Hispano Habanero is a liqueur made by macerating fresh Habanero peppers in 55% white rum. After a month of maceration, brown sugar is added at the end of the process.
" A controlled fire: the aromatic power of the habanero pepper explodes on the nose and in the mouth, supported by the heat of the rum. The brown sugar brings a nice roundness and softens the fiery pepper for a long, lively and tasty finish. Perfect for spicing up a Daiquiri or giving bite to a revisited Caipirinha."
