Our Story
From the Jalisco Highlands, LALO brings family tradition and a deep appreciation for Mexico to a tequila made with three ingredients.
Eduardo “Lalo” González and David “R” Carballido grew up near each other in Guadalajara, Jalisco, and have been friends since childhood.
Lalo’s father and grandfather were Mexican tequila makers, and David has spent his career working with producers in Mexico. A tequila blanco they made for a family wedding became the starting point for LALO.
They decided to make a blanco that lets the agave lead. LALO uses fully mature Highland agave, deep well water from Jalisco, and Champagne yeast. They bottle it without aging, so you can taste the character of the agave.
LALO is their fresh take on blanco, rooted in the people and place that shaped it.
