OUR AGAVE COMES FROM
4,000 FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL
Our family grown agaves are located at the volcanic area of Nayarit. This land is rich with minerals producing agaves with beautiful fine sugars, giving a unique flavor profile to Prolijo Tequila.

ROASTING THE AGAVE IN A
STONE BRICK OVEN
Our masonry oven is operated by steam injection. During this process, the piñas caramelize, the fibers soften and this facilitates the extraction of sugars for fermentation.

CRUSHING AGAVE WITH A
TAHONA
Once cooked, the Tahona crushes the roasted piñas extracting the sugars.

Guadalajara is the birthplace of Mexican charreria and the lasso is the tool of the charros. We pay homage to the charreria by having the lasso on Prolijo Tequila bottles. The lassos are created by artisan women from Guadalajara, Oaxaca and Puebla.
We do this with Cultural Conscience.
