Process & Production
Lomas Blanco begins with Blue Weber agave grown in the Highlands of Jalisco, where the region’s rich red soil, warm days, and cool nights help develop the agave’s fruit-forward character. The agave is matured for approximately six years and harvested with care, removing the bitter stem to emphasize the sweeter heart of the plant.
The agave piñas are cooked in brick ovens for 24 hours to develop their cooked-agave flavor. After cooking, the agave is processed using a roller mill to extract its juice. Fermentation takes place in open tanks, followed by double distillation in stainless steel stills. Deep well water is used to bring the tequila to its bottling strength of 40% ABV.
