Sarah Kennan is a South African entrepreneur celebrating Karoo agave in an exciting new way. Her product is name Leonista and is the country’s first 100% Karoo agave spirit. A Capetonian and spirited alchemist who follows an age-old recipe used in Mexico to make agave spirits like Mezcal. It requires smoke and fire, hence Leonista’s delicious smokey flavour, similar to that of a Mezcal. Also good to note that 100% agave spirits are the most energy-fueling of all the alcohols – if treated with respect.
