Volcán de mi Tierra

The Expression of the Uniqueness of Rich Aromas and Notes of Agave

Our Identity

Volcan de mi Tierra takes its name from a real volcano, the Volcan de Tequila, located in the lowlands of Jalisco in Mexico. The eruption of Volcan de Tequila, which occurred 200,000 years ago, exerted a decisive influence on the territory and topography of the Jalisco region, creating a fertile volcanic soil, ideal for the cultivation of blue agave. Furthermore, thanks to the volcanic ash, the soil is rich in basalt and iron, which give the tequila its special taste.

Launched in May 2017, Volcan de mi Tierra was born from the LVMH partnership and the Gallardo family, with the aim of creating an exceptional and complex tequila.

The distillery for Volcan De Mi Tierra sits in the lowlands at the foot of a volcano appropriately named Tequila, which erupted 200,000 years ago but continues to fertilize the land for prime agriculture. Here, blue agave is grown and used to produce the Blanco and Cristalino, thanks to the expertise of Anna María Romero Mena, the mastermind behind this new Moët Hennessy label. Romero Mena experimented with yeast variations, agave selections, and multiple cask maturations to hit the final tones for the 100-percent blue agave Volcan De Mi Tierra, pulling from the rich soil and history of this volcanic land.

Our Icon

Our Tequila Cristalino is an aged tequila of extraordinary quality, distilled in ancient barrels that give it an intense and inimitable flavor.

Volcan de mi Tierra is not just a simple tequila. It is the expression of the uniqueness of the rich aromas and notes of agave from Las Regiones Valles y Altos; an inimitable distillate in balance between tradition and modernity, which enhances the nuances of each specific area. From the cultivation process to the tasting phase, the essence of Volcan de mi Tierra is 100% passion.

Our Inspiration

A subtle balance between tradition and modernity transforms agave into tequila.

Volcan de mi Tierra tequila owes its complexity to the assembly of the characteristic aromas of agave from the highlands and lowlands: this extraordinary drink encompasses the best of both regions. Like the generations that preceded us, we know how to be patient and leave the agave all the time necessary to soften in the sun.

The use of a stone oven, slow fermentation in wooden barrels and cutting-edge procedures allow us to produce a tequila with an unparalleled flavor and aroma.

A Discovery Rich in Flavour

Our aromas come from the earth. Meticulously developed over millennia, basalt and iron have given birth to the rich, herbal nuances of fresh mint. Freshly cut grass, citrus tones, and spices.

What makes this land special is the people who have worked it over time. Generations of hands have shaped the terroir.

We are relentless optimists. We have learned to be patient, indeed each agave takes 3259 days to ripen.

The Harvest

We are guided by our history. But we take our own path.

Like the generation before us, we wait and watch as the agave sweeten in the sun.

With each new harvest, traditions slowly evolve. Agave slown ripen. The land slowly births new flavours. We infuse the old way of doing things with a new optimistic spirit.

The Process

We awaken tradition with new hands.

A delicate balance of heritage and modernity transform our agave into tequila.

We combine the use of a mampostery oven and slow fermentation in wood tanks with state-of-the-art process to develop a tequila with unparalleled flavor and aroma.

Infusing Tradition and Innovation with Authenticity

At Volcan we infuse history and innovation, blending the best of old and new world. At volcan we use the traditional process of Tahona milling. This old world technique uses a large oversized volcanic stone to gently crush and separate the agave juice from its fibers.

Tequila is a drink that defines our culture. It is a blend of grit and Corazon. With a splash of Convivencia.

The complexity of our tequila comes from blending the distinct flavours of the highland and lowland agave, bringing together the best of both regions into an extraordinary liquid.

Our Spirit

Before tequila was a drink, it was the heart of a volcano.

200.000 years ago the volcano touched the lowlands of the terroir. And a new fruit came to bear: firekissed with blue agave. Here, the volcano is the heart from which all flows, enriching both the land and the people. We continue to distill with a passion that burns as hot as the original fires of our mother volcano.

An intensity that can be field with every sip. And a communal lifeblood that binds friends into family. Heart is at the core of everything we do.

Soft and Sweet Tastes

To no great surprise, both the Blanco and Cristalino are smooth and sweet — but despite their similar appearance, they couldn’t taste more different. The Blanco (Spanish for “white”) — a common strain of unaged or mildly aged tequila that results in a clear-colored spirit — brings an unmistakable fruity sweetness with notes of citrus, pear, and tart cherry. An herbal base keeps the taste grounded and saves it from veering too far nectarous. To top off the profile, a dash of spiciness lingers slightly in your throat, without any burning you might find (and be deterred by) in other tequilas. We would take this baby straight up, on the rocks, or in a shot.
