Lunazul Aejo Tequila is produced in Jalisco, Mexico, using 100% Blue Weber agave harvested at full maturity. After cooking, fermentation, and double distillation, the tequila is aged between 12 and 18 months in American oak barrels, placing it firmly within the aejo category. This extended barrel aging softens the agaves natural intensity while introducing layers of oak-driven warmth, spice, and sweetness.
As an additive-free tequila, Lunazul Aejo relies solely on agave, fermentation, distillation, and barrel aging to develop its flavor profile. The result is a balanced aejo that bridges fresh agave character with rich oak influence, making it approachable for sipping while remaining versatile enough for elevated cocktails.
