Science has spoken.
The truth is out.

Cilantro lovers are the real mutants.
For millennia,
Humans hated cilantro.

But somewhere along the way,
A mutation crept in.

Cilantro lovers claim
They are human, too.

It’s the cilantro divide.

Before we spiral into collapse, its time to reach across the aisle.

Mutants Welcome.

🌿 Introducing Empirical Cilantro 🌿

A sensory journey to the summer garden. Crafted on a base of light French wheat, this spirit captures the essence of a singular botanical: Cilantro.

Bright, refreshing, and verdant, Empirical Cilantro opens with a sprightly, fresh citrus bouquet and a pop of garden-fresh herbaceousness, before finishing with a satisfying dry minerality and hints of fennel and green tomato.

Sip it over ice with soda and a squeeze of lime, or shake it up in a martini or sour—38% ABV, endlessly versatile, and full of flavor in every drop.

Ready to spark creativity, whether you’re a cocktail connoisseur or just getting started. ✨

The Pasilla Mixe chili is native to the Eastern part of the Sierra Norte region of Oaxaca, Mexico. It is grown in the rugged mountains of the Sierra Mixe region at an altitude of around 2000 meters above sea level and higher. The smoky Pasilla Mixe chili is also the sole botanical and the primary source of all the complexity in Ayuuk.⁠

Did you know that smell actually comes in a set of two different senses? The first one (orthonasal) occurs when you naturally breathe in and as a result, smell your direct environment. The other one (retronasal) is more exciting. It starts in your mouth as you eat or drink. The smell particles unlocked while you breathe out are transported to receptors that then send the information to your brain to create flavor.
The coolest part, and the one that makes the most sense to us at Empirical, is that smell is the only sense that is directly linked to the part of the brain (hypothalamus) that controls our moods, and emotions, and where our memories are processed. Basically, it hits us right in the feels.

Distillation is a breakdown of sorts, a method that allows liquid mixtures to separate into their components.

Used for ritual purposes across the globe, its purpose shifted to medicinal use in the late 13th century in the form of Water of Life or Aqua Vitae in Latin. And from what could frankly be called poor-quality distillates, technological advancements, and better raw ingredients led us to the spirits we now drink and the categories they fall under. Yet the techniques have remained the same throughout the ages.

This led to some questions when we started Empirical:

“What about innovation? Why not move beyond what we know now and centuries-old categories? What will be the future of flavor and spirits?”

These questions pushed us to deconstruct everything we knew and build a new framework.

This led us to vacuum distillation.

Empirical is universal and not bound by its location. It is a way of experiencing, of questioning, and defying the status quo. It is the freshly foraged Douglas Fir of Denmark, the fragrant Pasilla Mixe Chili of Oaxaca, the grassy sorghum of Wisconsin and the smoky katsuobushi of Japan. It is tradition and innovation, the familiar and the novel, born in Copenhagen but belonging everywhere. It is a dichotomy we play with and lines we love to blur.
