Lala Tequila Reposado
Lala Tequila Reposado comes from the heart of the Jalisco highlands and reflects the profound beauty of its origins. Made from agave that thrives on mineral-rich, red soil, each bottle holds a dance of flavours - where the semi-sweet mouthfeel of the agave melds with deep herbal notes that are rounded off with a distinctive aftertaste. The experienced Jimadores, guided by the experience of generations, skilfully reveal the piña, the soul of the agave.
Agave is brewed for more than 9 hours. This process softens the piña and facilitates the extraction of the sugar during milling. After cooking, the agave pieces are taken to the mill for sugar extraction. Here, the cooked piñas are crushed to release the juice that will eventually become final product.
The juice obtained is fermented with yeast in large stainless steel tanks. This natural process of converting sugars into alcohol takes 72 hours.
The enzymes are then separated by heat and stemming in a steel distillation still. It isdistilled twice - the first time as a mashing process and the second time as a purification process. During this step, the alcohol level reaches around 60 % and is then reduced to a more modest 40 %.
After extraction, the essence goes on a journey of transformation and rests for 4 months in virgin oak barrels. It is here that the tequila acquires subtle notes of caramel, vanilla and oak.
The result? A Tequila Reposado that speaks not only of ancient traditions and meticulous craftsmanship, but also of a rich sojourn in the sanctuary of virgin oak. An elixir that pays homage to both the passion of its producers and the bounty of nature.
Each bottle is bottled and hand-labeled one by one on an all-female production line.
The bottles are filled at 38 % alcohol with a volume of 0,7 l.
