Los Tres Tonos Reposado Tequila is rested for 6 months in American bourbon barrels, revealing a light colour and wood-driven vanilla and caramel flavours from the lowlands of Jalisco — the perfect alternative for the smoky malt whiskey lover, with a highly smoky character reminiscent of mezcal or Islay Scotch.
The lowlands of Jalisco (the Valles region) produce tequilas with a characteristically vegetal, herbal, and sometimes earthy profile from the agave that grows there — a contrast to the fruitier and more floral highland tequilas of Los Altos. The 6-month bourbon barrel rest adds the characteristic wood-driven vanilla and caramel layer while the lowland agave character underneath provides the smoky and distinctive profile that makes Los Tres Tonos an unusual choice in the reposado category.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a lowland tequila described as smoky?
The Valles (lowland) region of Jalisco produces agave with a characteristically earthier and sometimes smoky profile compared to highland tequila. This is a function of the specific blue agave varietal, elevation, soil, and climate of the lowland region — not artificial smoke addition. Order online with fast shipping.
