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.
