Product Details

Nose: Clean, herbaceous agave with bright citrus notes. Fresh lime zest and lemon peel mingle with ripe cantaloupe. Subtle hints of roasted pine nuts and clover add depth. A faint mineral undertone rounds out the aroma.

Palate: Rich, agave-forward flavor with layers of complexity. Crisp citrus notes of grapefruit and lime lead, followed by juicy honeydew melon. Roasted nuts and a touch of white pepper provide balance. The 46% ABV offers a pleasant warmth without overpowering the delicate flavors.

Finish: Long and satisfying. The agave sweetness lingers, accompanied by a subtle minerality reminiscent of wet stone. Citrus zest and a hint of clover persist, with a gentle peppery tingle that slowly fades. Clean and refreshing, inviting another sip.

Lágrimas del Valle 2024 La Loma Plata Tequila is crafted using a unique intermittent cooking method, where agaves are cooked for 8 hours daily over 4 days, allowing for deep flavor development. The production process also combines traditional and modern techniques, with 70% of the agaves crushed by roller mill and 30% by tahona, then fermented separately in stainless steel and open-air wooden tanks, respectively, before being double-distilled and bottled at 46% ABV.

Lágrimas del Valle 2024 La Loma Plata is the first tequila in the series to come from Michoacán, a state not traditionally associated with tequila production. This unique origin contributes to its distinctive flavor profile.

The tequila's production process involves a rare "intermittent cooking" method, where the agaves are cooked for 8 hours a day over 4 days. This unusual technique allows for deeper flavor development as the agaves repeatedly heat and rest.

In a blend of old and new techniques, 30% of the agaves used for this tequila are crushed using a traditional tahona stone wheel and fermented in open-air wooden tanks with agave fibers, while the remaining 70% are processed using modern methods. This combination results in a complex, layered flavor profile.
