Discover La Venenosa Étnica Tutsi High Proof with Decorative Box 750ml, one of the rarest agave spirits produced in Mexico. Part of La Venenosa's Étnica Series, this release preserves the ancestral distillation traditions of the Wixarika (Huichol) people of northwestern Jalisco and is produced by Don Rafael Carrillo Pizano, who continues a centuries-old method of crafting Tutsi.

Unlike conventional tequila or mezcal, Tutsi is made from wild Maguey Masparillo (Agave maximiliana) that is harvested by hand, roasted in an earthen pit with oak and volcanic stone, hand-chopped with wooden mallets, naturally fermented with wild yeast, and single distilled in a traditional Wixarika tree-trunk still. Production is exceptionally limited, with only a handful of small batches produced annually.

This High Proof edition delivers an intense yet remarkably balanced profile with aromas of BBQ brisket and stone fruit, followed by flavors of mint and cooked plum with a fresh, velvety finish. Packaged in an elegant decorative presentation box, it is an exceptional bottle for collectors, agave enthusiasts, and those seeking one of Mexico's most historically significant spirits.
