Xila The Mexican Aperitif Licor de Agave

Xila The Mexican Aperitif Licor de Agave is a modern Mexican aperitif liqueur built around agave and refined with a select combination of natural fruit and spices, aiming to carve out a contemporary place within agave spirits. The brand pairs authentic origin with a focus on quality raw materials and a balanced composition, and the liqueur is bottled at a moderate 20% ABV. It presents itself as a versatile alternative to classic aperitifs.

The nose is fruity and spicy with agave, hibiscus and light bitter notes, the palate balanced and fruity with agave, spice and a subtle, harmonious bitterness, and the finish gentle, slightly bitter, spicy and long. The supporting profile of hibiscus, honey, vanilla and a touch of oak rounds the agave core. Behind the bar it brings a light bitter backbone, fruit and aromatic lift that cut sweetness, which makes it a natural aperitif on ice with orange zest, a base for spritz variations, and a building block in lighter cocktails. It pairs with Mediterranean starters, tapas and grilled vegetables. Serve it chilled over ice as an aperitif.
