La Venenosa Raicilla Etnica Tutsi is made with maguey Mai, which is an unclassified, mostly unknown species of agave that is endemic to the region of northwest Jalisco. Etnica is an extension of the La Venenosa line of raicillas that serves as a platform to bring agave spirits from indigenous ethnic groups to the market. This agave spirit is from the Huichol people in northwest Jalisco. While we call this spirit a Raicilla for ease of use on this site, Tutsi is the name that is used to describe it locally. Tutsi was lost for about 25 years and there is currently only one practicing producer. This Tutsi is single distilled in a Huichol style still.
