The Story of Sotol Sierra
Maestro Sotolero José “Chito” Fernández Flores harvests wild Dasylirion wheeleri, 18 to 22 years old, from the forests of the Madera Mountains. The plants are cooked in shallow pits fired with willow and oak, shredded by axe and knife, fermented 5 to 7 days in open-air pine tanks and distilled twice in copper pot stills. Where the Desierto expression shows the low desert, Sierra captures the high forest.
