THE HEART OF COSTA COSTA
AN ARTISANAL PROCESS
: In El Tuito, Jalisco, each dawn brings the promise of our raicilla. It all begins with the harvest of the Agave Angustifoila Haw, a native plant from which only the pine cones are harvested. These are cooked over oak or holm oak wood for 3 to 4 days in an underground oven, deeply absorbing the heat and nuances of the subsoil.

Once charred, the pine cones are delicately crushed to release their sweet juices. These, in turn, begin a natural fermentation process that lasts 15 to 20 days, transforming the sugars into the vibrant soul of our raicilla.
Finally, the fermented must undergoes a double distillation in copper stills. The first, known as "punta," and the second, known as "ordinario," are then combined for a final distillation that strives for perfection. In this phase, everything is tested with a "sacual," a type of ancient gourd that bears witness to this art.

Thus, after a journey of patience and mastery, Costa Costa rests in its iconic ceramic bottle, ready to transport you to the Mexican coast with every sip.
