Leonista which means 'lion energy' is the first 100% Karoo agave spirit in the country made in the traditional Mexican way. The production process follows an age old recipe used in Mexico to make Agave spirits like Mezcal. Our founder learnt this when she went to Mexico and worked with the master distillers there. It requires smoke and fire, hence Leonista has a delicious smokey flavor similar to that of a Mezcal. Tequila is a type of Mezcal and both are made from the agave plant.
It is made for a conscious consumer who demands something of a higher quality, handmade and if treated with respect has energy giving properties and has less harmful effect on the body.
There are four variants:
Blanco - Meaning “white” in Spanish. It is an un-aged variant in the pride characterized by the smooth but distinctly smokey flavour and is the closest adaptation to an authentic Mezcal. Connoisseurs love it and our blanco boasts the most international awards for its quality.
Reposado - Meaning “aged” or “rested” is mellow and aged and is our senior member of the pride. It is rested for 3 - 6 months in oak barrels resulting in a smooth, sweeter flavour with hints of smokey finish.
Honey Reposado - The sweetest and most unique lioness of the pride. Infused with honey, it is subtly sweet with hints of a smokey finish.
Reposado Black - The newest member of our pride. It is rested for 6 - 8 months in old brandy, American oak barrels that give it a smooth mouth feel with notes of caramel and dark chocolate.
