Lágrimas del Valle La Mesa del Charco Reposado Tequila – 92 Proof (46% ABV) | 750ml

Terroir-driven, complex, and traditionally crafted, Lágrimas del Valle La Mesa del Charco Reposado Tequila is a single-ranch vintage tequila designed to showcase the unique characteristics of one exceptional agave estate in Jalisco. Bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof) in a 750ml bottle, this additive-free reposado combines vibrant agave character with subtle barrel influence, creating a layered and highly expressive sipping tequila.

Process & Aging

Produced in collaboration with the Rosales family at the legendary Tequila Cascahuín distillery, this expression originates from the La Mesa del Charco ranch in El Arenal, Jalisco, situated at an elevation of 1,469 meters. The agaves harvested for this release averaged an impressive 38% Brix, contributing exceptional richness and concentration to the final spirit.

Lágrimas del Valle follows a “Vintage Rancho Único” philosophy, meaning each release comes from a single ranch harvested during a specific vintage year to intentionally highlight the effects of terroir — including soil, elevation, climate, and farming practices — on tequila flavor.

After traditional cooking, fermentation, and distillation at Cascahuín, this reposado is rested for 3 months in ex-bourbon barrels, allowing gentle oak influence to complement rather than overpower the agave character.
