Agwa de Bolivia is the only coca leaf liqueur in the world, first produced in 1820 by the De Medici family, based on the ancient traditional uses of coca leaves by the native South American population.
Agwa de Bolivia uses Bolivian coca leaves, picked at 2000 metres above sea level in the Andes which are shipped under armed guard to Amsterdam where the cocaine alkaloids are carefully removed before distillation. The resulting spirit is blended with 36 other botanicals and allowed to rest before bottling to create a liqueur like no other. |
