Tepache is a traditional Mexican effervescent drink with origins dating back to the Aztecs. There is no single recipe for tepache, but all tepaches should start with perfectly ripe fruit, botanical herbs or spices, and a small amount of piloncillo sugar. Styles and recipes for tepache change from region-to-region and will often be reinterpreted by using the local seasonal fruits and ingredients that are available in each community. Tepache Sazón is produced on the Pacific coast of Mexico in the town of San Pancho, Nayarit surrounded by tropical fruit plantations like pineapple, mango, guava, lychee, melons, and passionfruit. The pineapple fields are located only 30km from the tepacheria, which is the only production facility of its kind in the region.
Unbridled aromas of tropical fruit and baking spice greet the nose with overripe pineapple and clove. Vivacious with a slight effervescence, the palate bursts with a flourish of freshly cut pineapple and grated cinnamon with a touch of salinity on a dry finish. 7% alcohol
