D'Aristi Xtabentún Mayan Edition is the traditional honey and anise liqueur of the Yucatán, bottled at 30% ABV (60 proof).
Casa D'Aristi makes it in Mérida, fermenting honey on site, then blending it with anise seed and Mexican rum distilled from sugar cane juice.
The recipe follows a Mayan-inspired tradition dating back to the 16th century.
This edition comes in a sculpted terracotta-coloured bottle showing a Mayan figure, finished with a rope-wrapped neck.
Sweet honey and bold anise make it a striking gift and a great after-dinner sipper.
