Ancho Reyes is a Mexican herbal liqueur made using poblano chilies according to a 1927 recipe. When the poblano chile is dried in open air it becomes an ancho chile and these chilies are hand-selected according to size, colour and humidity, before being macerated in neutral alcohol for six months.

Review and Tasting

Sampled on 22/02/2015

Appearance

Clear, deep copper amber.

Aroma

Dark chocolate, coffee, biscuit, caramel and cinnamon with a distinct whiff of dried chili spice.

Taste

Caramel, tobacco leaf, chocolate and vanilla with strong cinnamon spice and assertive chilli heat. The spicy heat cuts through and balances syrupy sweetness.

Aftertaste

Smoky caramel and tobacco leaf with lingering chilli heat. Overall: Unlike many other fiery liqueurs Ancho Reyes offers great complexity of flavour.
