Dos Lunas Tequila
Dos Lunas Tequila is a brand of tequila produced in the region of Jalisco, Mexico. The brand is known for its high-quality production process and distinctive flavor profiles.
History[edit | edit source]
Dos Lunas Tequila was founded by Richard C. Poe II in 2006. The brand was created with the vision of producing a premium tequila that adheres to traditional methods while incorporating modern techniques to ensure consistency and quality.
Production Process[edit | edit source]
The production of Dos Lunas Tequila begins with the harvesting of mature blue agave plants, which are grown in the rich volcanic soil of Jalisco. The agave plants are typically harvested after 7-10 years of growth. The hearts of the agave, known as piñas, are then slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens to convert the complex carbohydrates into fermentable sugars.
After cooking, the piñas are crushed to extract the agave juice, which is then fermented using proprietary yeast strains. The fermentation process is carefully monitored to ensure the development of the desired flavor profile. The fermented liquid is then distilled twice in copper pot stills to achieve a high level of purity.
