Description

Altos Plata is a balanced tequila, handcrafted to perfection in the heart of Los Altos – the Jalisco, Mexico highlands. Created in 2010, it is the brainchild of two leading London bartenders, Dré Masso and the late Henry Besant, in careful collaboration with our Maestro Tequilero Jesús Hernández. Their aim was a 100% agave, premium-quality tequila well suited for cocktails, but smooth and delicious when sipped neat. Using an ancestral tahona stone to crush the cooked agave, they achieved their high standards that remain the unique process at the heart of Olmeca Altos tequilas. Distilling our finest spirits means harvesting the very best highland agaves from the red earth of Los Altos, at nearly 7000 ft / 2100 m ASL. The region’s ideal climate and mineral-rich soil produce an extraordinarily smooth, sterling tequila.
