This is a commemorative release created to celebrate 15 years of La Venenosa, Espíritus de Jalisco, a project built through territory, tradition, and the people behind each of our expressions.
La Venenosa Etnica Tutsi is the sacred agave spirit of the Wixárika people, indigenous communities from Northwest Jalisco globally renowned for their intricate chaquira (beadwork) and their ancestral distillation traditions. This exceptional spirit, crafted by Don Rafael in the village Tatei Kie, is made from wild-foraged Maguey Masparillo. It undergoes a single distillation inside a hollowed-out tree trunk—a unique technique found nowhere else on earth, which has officially given this historic apparatus the name of the Wixárika distiller.
