Ancho Reyes - Chile Ancho

In 1920s Puebla, the cantinas of the Barrio del Artista bustled with artists and intellectuals who gathered to exchange ideas over original homemade liqueurs known as menjurjes. One especially popular menjurje was handcrafted from the ancho chile.

 

Ancho Reyes and Ancho Reyes Verde are handcrafted using chiles native to Puebla.

 

The poblano chiles are cultivated in the volcano-enriched soils of Puebla. After harvest, the soil is rested for three years before it again grows chiles.

 

For Ancho Reyes Original, chiles are sun-dried for between 15 to 20 days to become ancho chiles. The dried chiles develop a rich, smoky, and fiery flavor.

 

For half of a year, the chiles soak in a stepped process, macerating in small vats of neutral cane spirit from Veracruz, Mexico.

 

Once ready, the liquid is bottled. Each bottle is inspected individually then hand labeled.
