FROM THE BIRTHPLACE OF CORN Abasolo El Whisky de Mexico is crafted and distilled from the finest, non-GMO, Cacahuazintle corn which has been cultivated over generations by local farmers for its distinct, extraordinary flavor. More than 7,000 years ago, corn (mahiz) was developed by the indigenous people of Mexico. More than just a crop, corn is the cultural foundation and historical identity of the country.
