The making of

Ancho Reyes

Ancho Reyes and Ancho Reyes Verde liqueurs are handcrafted using chiles native to Puebla.
We utilize the time-honored techniques for making menjurjes mastered by artisans in 1920’s Puebla.
Discover Ancho Reyes and how it’s made.

Grown

Our ancho chiles have been grown by Mexican farmers in the fertile volcanic soil in Puebla for generations. The chiles grow for nine months in their natural climate before being harvested which creates the rich chile taste. After harvest, the soil is then rested for three years before chiles are grown again.

Hand picked

One by one, each chile is individually hand-selected for quality. For Ancho Reyes Verde, the chiles are harvested earlier, while green.
For Ancho Reyes Original, the chiles are harvested later, once they’ve matured and turned red.

Sundried ancho

For Ancho Reyes Original, the chiles are sun-dried for between 15 to 20 days to become ancho chiles, transforming their vegetal notes into rich, baking spice like notes.

FIRE ROASTED VERDE

For Ancho Reyes Verde, a portion of the chiles are fire roasted to harness their fresh, bright and crisp flavors.

Preparation

The chiles used in Ancho Reyes Verde are mashed. The ancho chiles used in Ancho Reyes Original are scissor-sliced by hand, a painstaking, time-consuming process that ensures that we use only the finest chiles.

Macerated

For half a year, the chiles are left to soak in small vats of neutral cane spirit from Veracruz, Mexico.

Blended

Imbued with chile flavor, the resulting liquid is then hand-blended by our Maestra Maceradora - or Master Blender, to maintain consistent flavor and spice.

Illustration

Rested

The mixture then rests, allowing the flavors to combine perfectly before being bottled.

Illustration

Bottled

Once ready, the liqueur is bottled.
Each bottle is inspected individually then hand labeled according to tradition.
This is how Ancho Reyes liqueurs are made.
