I came across this liqueur during a trip to Cancún -- I liked it, even though I had an inferior brand (San Marino). When I got back to NJ, I found D'aristi's version.

Comments

Cleaned this up a bit - removed the note which insisted that the brand of Xabentun specified was a real brand... it broke the line pretty badly (and we trust you).

Thanks,

Zachary
