Casa D’Aristi traces its origins to the early 20th century in Mérida, Yucatan, a region rich in Mayan history, tropical agriculture, and colonial influence. From the beginning, the brand focused on preserving local flavours and traditional recipes, transforming regional ingredients into elegant, expressive liqueurs. The company’s identity is closely tied to the Mayan-inspired spirit xtabentun, a historic honey-based liqueur flavoured with anise and derived from nectar of the xtabentún flower - a symbol of both local folklore and botanical heritage.
By reviving and refining these traditional recipes, Casa D’Aristi has played a key role in keeping Yucatan’s drinking culture alive for new generations. Its products are increasingly featured in specialist retailers, premium bars, and cultural dining venues, helping introduce global audiences to Mexican liqueur traditions beyond tequila and mezcal.
