Agaveluz Tequila Process

AgaveLuz is crafted using just two pure ingredients:

✔ 100% certified organic blue Weber agave – Grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, preserving the plant’s natural essence.
✔ Natural water – Sourced from pure underground wells, filtered to ensure the highest level of quality and purity.

We are committed to producing a clean, non-toxic tequila, free from artificial sweeteners and chemicals—just the way tequila was meant to be.

Yes! AgaveLuz is handcrafted from start to finish, following traditional tequila-making methods.

• Agave is harvested by hand by skilled jimadores, ensuring only the ripest, most flavorful piñas are selected.
• Stone and brick ovens are used for slow, even cooking, preserving the agave’s natural sugars.
• Small-batch fermentation and distillation allow for precise quality control, maintaining the integrity of the agave’s natural flavors.

By honoring artisanal techniques, AgaveLuz ensures that each bottle reflects the passion, skill, and craftsmanship behind authentic organic tequila.

Unlike mass-produced brands, we focus on:

✔ Slow, natural fermentation, enhancing depth and complexity.
✔ Strict quality control, ensuring every bottle meets high organic purity standards.
✔ Selective aging processes, allowing flavors to develop without artificial enhancements.

Our small-batch approach guarantees that each sip of AgaveLuz is smooth, full-bodied, and authentically crafted—never rushed, never compromised.

AgaveLuz is crafted exclusively from 100% organic blue Weber agave (Agave tequilana Weber var. Azul), the only variety permitted for authentic tequila production. This high-sugar-content agave is carefully cultivated in the mineral-rich volcanic soil of Amatitán, Jalisco, ensuring a naturally smooth, complex, and flavorful tequila. By using organic farming methods, we preserve the purity of the agave, resulting in a clean, non-toxic spirit with a true taste of Mexico’s tequila heartland.

Our organic blue Weber agave is nurtured for a minimum of seven years before harvest. This extended maturation period allows the plants to fully develop rich natural sugars, which are essential for producing a balanced, smooth, and deeply flavorful tequila. Unlike mass-produced tequilas that use younger, underdeveloped agave, AgaveLuz prioritizes patience and quality to ensure a superior sipping experience.

AgaveLuz’s agave piñas are hand-harvested by skilled jimadores, using a traditional tool called a coa. These experts carefully trim away the spiky leaves, exposing the piña (heart of the agave), which contains the plant’s naturally sweet nectar. This centuries-old method ensures that only fully mature, high-quality agave hearts are selected, preserving the purity and depth of flavor in our organic tequila.

Jimadores are masters of agave harvesting, playing a critical role in tequila production. Their knowledge and precision allow them to determine the perfect moment to harvest, ensuring that each piña is collected at peak ripeness. By expertly trimming the leaves and extracting the heart, jimadores directly influence the smoothness, complexity, and authenticity of AgaveLuz organic tequila.

AgaveLuz slow-roasts agave piñas in traditional stone and brick ovens, a method that gently caramelizes the natural sugars and enhances depth and richness of flavor. This low-and-slow cooking process preserves the agave’s natural sweetness and aromatic complexity, resulting in a tequila that is smooth, full-bodied, and true to its organic origins. Unlike high-speed industrial methods, our approach honors tradition while ensuring exceptional taste and purity.

AgaveLuz exclusively uses traditional stone and brick ovens to cook its agave, rather than modern autoclaves. While autoclaves speed up the process using high pressure, our slow-roasting method ensures even cooking, allowing for a more refined, naturally sweet, and aromatic tequila. By using time-honored techniques, we maintain the integrity of the agave’s flavors, resulting in a clean, pure, and artisanal organic tequila.

Once the agave piñas are fully roasted, they are crushed using a roller mill to extract their rich, sweet juice, known as aguamiel. This process releases the caramelized sugars, which are essential for fermentation. By carefully pressing the cooked agave, we ensure that only the purest, most flavorful nectar is used, forming the foundation of AgaveLuz’s smooth and naturally complex tequila.

Fermentation is the natural process that converts agave sugars into alcohol. After extraction, natural yeast is introduced to the aguamiel, initiating a slow fermentation process that lasts several days. During this time, the yeast metabolizes the sugars, producing alcohol and complex aromatic compounds that define the character of AgaveLuz organic tequila. Our method preserves the natural essence of organic agave, creating a smooth, flavorful spirit without artificial enhancements.

AgaveLuz employs natural, open-top fermentation in stainless steel tanks, allowing for a controlled yet naturally influenced process. This method enables the agave to interact with native yeasts and ambient conditions, enhancing the depth, richness, and complexity of our tequila’s flavor profile. Unlike industrialized fermentation that rushes the process, our slow, natural approach allows the true essence of the agave to shine.

The fermentation process at AgaveLuz spans several days, allowing for a gradual conversion of sugars to alcohol. This extended fermentation ensures that the tequila develops a well-rounded, layered complexity, enhancing both the aroma and taste. By letting nature take its course, AgaveLuz achieves a smooth, full-bodied tequila with naturally rich flavors.

AgaveLuz undergoes a meticulous double distillation process in stainless steel pot stills with copper coils. The first distillation removes impurities, while the second refines and enhances the tequila’s purity, smoothness, and depth of flavor. This process ensures that our tequila maintains the clean, crisp essence of organic blue Weber agave, resulting in a high-quality, non-toxic spirit that is both refined and naturally complex.

Double distillation is key to producing a clean, well-balanced, and smooth tequila. The first distillation, known as ordinario, removes heavier compounds, while the second distillation refines the spirit, concentrating its flavor and purity. This method enhances the natural sweetness and complexity of the agave, ensuring that each sip of AgaveLuz organic tequila is silky, vibrant, and exceptionally smooth.

Yes, AgaveLuz is crafted using 100% single-estate organic blue Weber agave, meaning all agave used comes from our carefully maintained fields in Amatitán, Jalisco. This exclusive sourcing ensures complete quality control, consistency, and purity, as every plant is grown under the same organic, chemical-free conditions. Unlike mass-produced brands that source agave from multiple locations with varying cultivation methods, AgaveLuz’s single-estate approach guarantees a clean, natural tequila with a distinct and authentic Lowlands flavor profile.

AgaveLuz follows a strict organic production process that eliminates pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers, ensuring a pure, chemical-free tequila.
