About

The Sotol collection at The Epicurean Trader offers a unique exploration of this lesser-known Mexican spirit, celebrated for its distinctive flavour and artisanal production. Made from the desert plant of the same name, sotol is often compared to tequila and mezcal but boasts its own unique profile, characterised by earthy, herbal, and sometimes smoky notes. This collection brings together some of the finest sotols, providing a diverse tasting experience for enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

One standout in this collection is the Flor del Desierto Sierra Sotol offers a wild, earthy spirit with herbal notes, crafted in the heart of the Chihuahuan Desert. Crafted with traditional methods, this sotol offers a complex flavour profile with notes of agave, pepper, and a subtle touch of desert flowers, making it an excellent choice for sipping neat or incorporating into cocktails. Another notable option is the Fabriquero Coahuila Sotol delivers a smooth, smoky profile with hints of citrus, showcasing the distinct terroir of Northern Mexico. With its balanced sweetness and earthy undertones, this sotol pairs beautifully with a variety of foods and is perfect for those who appreciate a softer, more nuanced spirit.

Whether you're exploring the world of sotol for the first time or seeking to expand your collection, The Epicurean Trader’s Sotol collection offers a selection of high-quality spirits that celebrate the rich heritage and unique flavours of this remarkable spirit.
