During the 2021 edition of the Top World Spirit Awards, the Hacienda El Divisadero raicilla got the highest recognition after receiving the Gold Medal, thanks to the quality of its flavor and aroma that enhances this Chico Aguiar agave distillate.

This distinguished contest, held in Paris, France, was made up of a 16-member jury, including renowned taster Christophe Guitard, as well as sommeliers Myriam Huet and Mona Khalife, who rated more than a dozen of spirits and distilled brands, choosing the Hacienda El Divisadero raicilla, led by Jorge Luis Carbajal, as their favorite.

Hacienda El Divisadero was founded in 1999, undertaking the task of recovering the artisanal production process of the raicilla, from the jima until its distillation.

The raicilla is gaining strength at the national level and thanks to recognitions such as the Top World Spirit Awards, the work of all the raicilleros is obtaining international importance.

"Since we started the company we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles, a publication that is considered ‘Puerto Vallarta’s Magazine’ by the quality of its images, content and staff, unique characteristics that encouraged us to say: ‘We have to be in Vallarta Lifestyles’. We know that this magazine is a reference for the target market that we are looking for and we know that being there gives us prestige.”

“One of the biggest benefits of advertising in Vallarta Lifestyles is that a lot of readers keep it as a bible. People have arrived to our gallery looking for the pieces that are in the advertisements published 5 or 6 years ago, and that’s really valuable for us. Besides being an excellent magazine where is possible to find the newest in the destination, it is a publication dedicated to the public we want to reach and keep.”
