Award winning and handcrafted in the city of Tequila, Mexico, all three VIVA XXXII are sustainably made from 100% organic, handpicked blue agave. 

The Joven presents an Agave-Forward Aroma, the flavor features notes of lemon peel, white pepper, and yerba buena. The taste is crisp and clean, with a medium-to-long finish. 

The Reposado presents aromas that are Agave-Forward with vanilla and caramel. A hint of toasted nuts lend a crisp, buttery balance. A medium finish of vanilla and floral notes create a well-rounded, refined and delicate taste.

Extra AÑEJO is rested for a minimum of 3 years in American oak barrels, giving it a dark amber color. Brings forth fruit notes with hints of caramel, sandalwood, and honey on the plate, giving it a full body with an exceptional smooth finish. 

Yola Mezcal is handcrafted and distilled 
on our namesake farm using a recipe
passed down by Yola's grandfather.
