From Source to Spirit
Production Process
Agave Harvest
7–10 years growthMature blue agave (7–10 years old) are harvested by jimadores who strip the leaves to reveal the piña (heart).
Cooking
24–72 hoursPiñas are slowly roasted in traditional stone ovens or autoclaves to convert starches into fermentable sugars.
Crushing & Extraction
HoursCooked piñas are crushed using a tahona (volcanic stone wheel) or roller mills to extract the sweet agave juice.
Fermentation
3–12 daysThe extracted juice ferments naturally or with added yeast in wooden or steel tanks, developing complex flavour compounds.
Distillation
4–8 hours × 2Double distillation in copper pot stills refines the spirit. The distiller carefully selects only the heart of the run.
Ageing
0–5+ yearsReposado (2–12 months), Añejo (1–3 years) or Extra Añejo (3+ years) in oak barrels develop depth and character.

The tequila is made from 100% Weber Blue Agave, roasted in small brick ovens and crushed using both a traditional tahona wheel and a roller mill for a complex flavour profile.
