Lunazul Tequila
Estate-grown Jalisco tequila, additive-free, priced like a house pour.
The story behind Lunazul
Lunazul comes out of Tierra de Agaves near the town of Tequila, Jalisco, under NOM 1513. Francisco Beckmann Sr. founded it in 2002, a seventh-generation descendant of the Cuervo tequila family, after he left as co-owner of José Cuervo. His son Jorge runs it today, and Heaven Hill handles distribution.
The agave is the point. All of it is estate-grown Blue Weber, cultivated 7 to 9 years in the family's red clay soils, so every bottle traces back to a field they own. Piñas steam-roast in autoclaves, a roller mill extracts the juice, a proprietary estate yeast ferments it, and copper alembic stills with cognac-style coils distill it twice. No additives, no coloring.
Explore the Lunazul range
Lunazul keeps a tight lineup at 80 proof, and the aging happens in freshly emptied Heaven Hill bourbon barrels rather than bought-in cooperage.
