Crafted from the Wilds of Chihuahua: Hacienda Tabalaopa introduces a tequila alternative that’s truly one-of-a-kind. Sourced from the remote northern deserts of Chihuahua, this agave spirit is derived from the wild Dasylirion plant, often referred to as the Desert Spoon. Unlike traditional agave, Dasylirion takes an impressive 12-15 years to mature, offering a rare and distinctive flavor profile.

Meticulous Production Process: The journey from plant to bottle is a labor of love. The Dasylirion is slowly cooked in clay ovens for at least 72 hours, then crushed and fermented with champagne yeast for a minimum of three days. Distilled in a double column copper still, the resulting spirit is then aged six months in new French oak casks, imparting a subtle earthiness without overpowering the unique flavors of the Desert Spoon.

Taste the Difference: With less pepper and fruit notes than traditional tequila, Hacienda Tabalaopa offers a nuanced and pleasurable drinking experience. The oak aging adds depth, but it’s the unusual yet delightful flavors of the Desert Spoon that truly set this spirit apart.

Perfect for Discerning Palates: Whether you’re a tequila aficionado or simply looking to try something new, Hacienda Tabalaopa is a must-try. With an alcohol content of 38%, it’s perfect for sipping neat or incorporating into your favorite cocktails.
