NIXTA
From the birthplace of corn.

From the birthplace of corn.
Some spirits begin with an ingredient. Nixta begins with the ingredient that built a civilization.
Long before tequila, mezcal or whisky existed, corn was at the heart of Mexican life. It fed communities, shaped traditions and became the foundation of an entire culture. For thousands of years, maize has been far more than food. It is identity.
Nixta was created to celebrate that heritage.

Crafted at Destilería y Bodega Abasolo, Nixta is the world’s first and only ancestral corn liqueur, made from heirloom Cacahuazintle corn grown in the high valleys surrounding the Nevado de Toluca volcano. Every bottle pays tribute to Mexico’s oldest and most important crop.
Its production honours a tradition that dates back more than 4,000 years.

Using the ancient Mesoamerican technique of nixtamalization, ripe kernels are transformed to unlock deeper aromas and natural sweetness, while young tender corn is roasted and macerated to preserve its delicate freshness. Together they create a liqueur with remarkable depth, balancing notes of sweet corn, toasted corn, vanilla and caramel.
The result is unlike anything else.

Its distinctive bottle tells the story before the cork is even removed.
Inspired by the texture and shape of an ear of corn, it has become one of the most recognisable designs in modern spirits, earning international acclaim alongside the liquid itself.
