5. Leonista
With a name derived from the term "lion energy", Leonista stands as the pioneering 100% Karoo agave spirit in South Africa, crafted in the traditional Mexican fashion. This artisanal process mirrors age-old techniques employed in Mexico for the production of agave spirits like Mezcal, which involves cooking the agave plant over smoke and fire. Which is exactly where Leonista gets its distinctively delicious smoky essence.
While Leonista cannot bear the Mezcal or Tequila label as it is not produced in Mexico, it embodies the essence of a local Mezcal, meticulously crafted from South African Karoo agave, which has thrived in the region for centuries. Cheers to that!
