In the western Mexico town of Tequila, there’s a small nondescript cantina called La Capilla - home of the Batanga, a simple drink created in the 1950’s by Don Javier Degado Corona, the bar’s owner. The Batanga is simple: nothing more than tequila, coke and fresh lime juice, served in a tall glass with a salted rim. But as Don Javier will tell you, it’s flavour isn’t only in the ingredients - it’s the big knife, which he uses to stir the cocktail, that’s the secret to the perfect Batanga.

Clear. Classic and expressive on the nose with intense, typical earthy agave notes of pepper, herbs and mint. Fresh and lively, with a clean and vivid profile and long finish.
