"Made from an ancestral Mexican corn called cacahuazintle, this whisky uses a nixtamalization process (soaking and cooking the corn in an alkaline solution) before drying, roasting, and grinding, a technique borrowed from traditional tortilla-making but new to whisky. The nixtamalized corn is blended with a bit of malted corn, slowly fermented, double distilled in copper stills, and aged in oak at a high-altitude distillery, producing a smooth, slightly sweet spirit with notes of vanilla, honey, black tea, and roasted corn." - Devorah Lev-Tov
