Tasting Notes

Ancho Reyes Verde Chile Liqueur captures the vibrant, fresh heat of green poblano peppers harvested early in the season. The nose greets you with crisp roasted chile, freshly cut herbs, and a touch of citrus zest. On the palate, it delivers a bright and lively profile—grilled green pepper, subtle smoke, hints of pineapple and lime, and a vegetal sweetness that softens the spice. The texture is smooth yet energetic, carrying a refreshing balance of heat and sweetness. The finish is warm, lingering with herbal freshness and a gentle chile kick that invites another sip.

Food Pairings

This liqueur pairs beautifully with dishes that play with spice and freshness. As a starter, ceviche with jalapeño and lime or roasted corn esquites amplify its citrus and chile notes. For the main course, grilled chicken tacos with salsa verde, shrimp fajitas, or pork carnitas highlight its smoky, peppery character. Fresh cheeses like queso fresco or creamy goat cheese provide a cooling balance, while desserts such as pineapple upside-down cake or mango sorbet create a playful contrast with its vibrant, spicy finish.
