History

From the cultivation of the blue agaves to the aging process of the tequila which is normally a very time consuming process, every detail in the process of tequila production is an important area of concern. This detailing helps the Pepe Lopez to create one of the finest spirits in the world.

A blue agaves plant takes around a decade on average to mature. Then, the skilled Jimadors carefully harvest the fruit at the heart (pinas) of the agaves plants. The fruit are then taken to the distillery where they are steam cooked for one and a half days in traditional thick stone walled ovens. Juice is then extracted from the cooked pinas and is stored for fermentation. The fermented juice is distilled twice and then stored in barrels for aging which gives the tequila their flavor and aroma. The product is finally bottled.
