Flor del Desierto Sotol, a brand that blossomed in the Sierra of Chihuahua in 2011, is the brainchild of a group of friends who won a cooking competition where sotol was the star ingredient. This brand stands out for its artisanal production, with each variety distinguished by the unique touch of its master sotolero, Gerardo Ruelas. The sotol plant, or "sereque," matures over 18 to 25 years, enduring harsh winters and scorching summers before it's ready for distillation. Flor del Desierto Sotol has been recognized with the Gran Oro award from the National Academy of Mezcal for its triple-distilled product, a testament to its commitment to quality.
