Aroma: earth and minerality, cooked agave, citrus

Palate: the water source leads on the palate here with slate, earth, and fresh peppery notes accompanied by cooked agave while citrus and hints of mint and tarragon finish on the back of the experience

Finish: lasting, well oiled mouthfeel that stays with you until the next sip

Terralta Tequila is the fourth brand project from Felipe Camarena and his two sons, Alan and Luis, created at the infamous El Pandillo distillery in Jesus Maria, Los Altos. Central to the flavor profiles created at El Pandillo is the source of water used and in the case of Terralta, it all comes from a deep well, 150 meters down in the earth, where the minerality and soil are king. Where the other profiles are lofty and light, you’ll find Terralta firmly secured in the ground from which the agave grow. The soils of Los Altos are rich in iron, giving them a red coloring, and softness compared to the rockier soils of the Valley of Tequila.
