Lalo Tequila has announced the launch of their 2025 High Proof Blanco.
Available nationwide in limited quantities, this expression arrives in time to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month.
This follows the successful roll out of their inaugural 2024 High Proof release.
Bottled at 50% ABV with no water added after distillation, this is Lalo’s first tequila made using the “distilled to proof” method, according to the company.
“Lalo’s foundation is built on a deep respect for the agave plant, which is a value passed down to me from my father and grandfather, who were both tequilamakers,” says Eduardo “Lalo” González, Co-Founder of Lalo. “Our 2025 High Proof honors that heritage and tradition while celebrating the dynamic flavor of the agave. This expression means a lot to me because it captures the tequila industry’s shift towards innovation and authenticity, values that inspire us at Lalo and have allowed us to grow the brand while staying true to our roots.”
On the nose is roasted agave, green vegetal notes such as spicy jalapeño and subtle minerality, and hints of mint and white pepper, the company reports. The palate brings cooked agave, supported by earthy tones, olive brine and herbal complexity, with the high ABV adding depth. On the finish is agave sweetness, peppery spice and a touch of salinity.
Like all of Lalo’s expressions, the 2025 High Proof is made with just three ingredients: fully mature agave, well water and champagne yeast. The liquid and undergoes a traditional distillation method where the agave is cooked in brick steam ovens, fermented for three to four days and finished with two distillation cycles.
Where the 2025 High Proof differs is its distilled-to-proof process, which skips dilution and goes straight from still to bottle.
Lalo’s 2025 High Proof is available now across 41 states in limited quantities for a suggested retail price of $74.99 for a 750-ml. bottle.
