Since the time of the Incas, cocaleros have been carefully cultivating the coca leaf which plays an important role in Andean life. Coca leaves are used to suppress altitude sickness and to reduce feelings of hunger, thirst and pain; they also promote energy and stamina. Cocalero Clásico includes coca leaf, ginseng, juniper, guarana, orange peel and ginger, for a mysterious and intriguing flavor.

Cocalero Clásico uses a specialised steam distillation process pioneered by the perfume industry to extract the complex flavors and essential oils from the delicate botanicals. The final distillate is then blended to this proprietary recipe that continues to grow in global popularity.

Bright, herbal, and just a little bit strange - in a very good way. Cocalero Clásico opens with green spice, citrus oil, and a lift of ginger before settling into something softer and more tonic-like. It’s light on the palate but full of aromatic energy. Think of it as a bridge between amaro and gin - served cold, or dropped into tonic or soda for something sharp and unexpected.
