VILLA LOBOS 5cl Miniature

Product Description

Limited stock. Villa Lobos Mexican Vodka is produced by Licores Veracruz Distillers in Cordoba, close to the infamous Caribbean port of Veracruz, notorious for its pirates & fortress prison, La Fortaleza de St. Ulua. Villa Lobos is unique among world vodkas containing the famous Agave Worm, (Cossus redtembachi), actually the larva of the Night Butterfly which lives in the semi-desert Agave plants of tropical Mexico. For over a thousand years the Aztecs & the Nahuatl tribes of ancient Mexico have collected the worms which they believe have mystical powers, & used them as an integral part of the regional cuisine, as well as latterly enjoying them in the famous spirit of old Mexico, Mezcal. To the Mexicans, the worm symbolises the virtues of Machismo & its properties were highly prized by the ancient warriors. The Agave worm is the link between the origins of Villa Lobos Vodka & the proud & ancient heritage of tropical Mexico. Villa Lobos Vodka is produced from 3 different cereal grains using water taken from deep artesian wells filled with water from the melted snows on the peak of Mexicos highest active Volcano, El Pico de Orizaba, snow-covered all year round, even in the burning heat of high summer. Distilled 5 times, this ensures its not only the most unusual Vodka in the world, its also one of the smoothest.
