An ancestral spirit from Chiapas, Mexico

Posh Altar is a distilled spirit made from ancestral corn, originally crafted by the indigenous Tzotzil Mayans in Chiapas, Mexico. Posh holds deep cultural significance, traditionally used in religious rituals ceremonies —a practice that continues today.

Posh Altar is crafted using the highest quality ingredients sourced from local farms, giving each sip a unique and distinctive flavor. Completely natural, Posh Altar is cleaner and purer than other flavored alcohols, infused with locally sourced ingredients like the highest quality vanilla, cacao, and coffee from the region of Chiapas.

As a brand, Posh Altar continuously innovates while respecting and utilizing traditional methods. We heavily rely on surrounding farmers and the local terroir, sourcing only the finest ingredients to create our unique spirit. Due to our rigorous sourcing techniques, the ingredients we use may vary slightly by year, season, and vintage.

How is Posh Produced?

The traditional production of pox involves the creation of mash from a mixture of corn, wheat, and sugarcane. This mash is then fermented for several days and marks the pivotal moment in developing the original flavor of pox. Once fermentation is complete, the mash undergoes a distillation process to create the final clear and potent liquor. This strong liquor is infused with ingredients from the local flora and masterfully blended to create Posh Altar. Our interpretation is crafted without any wheat, ensuring that it is completely gluten-free.
