Crafted in the highlands of Los Altos, Jalisco, Lost Lore Westbound Reposado is a limited-edition collaboration release aged in American white oak barrels and finished in stout beer casks from Westbound & Down Brewing, bridging bold barrel character with authentic, agave-forward tequila craft.
Made from 100% Blue Weber Agave grown in Los Altos, the piñas are slow-cooked in traditional stone brick ovens, fermented with champagne yeast, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. After resting in used American white oak, the spirit is finished in barrels that previously aged Westbound & Down's stout beer, picking up rich, roasted depth while keeping the vivid agave core the region is known for. Bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof). Produced under NOM 1414 with zero additives.
