About LALO Tequila

LALO Tequila is a story of friendship, craft and authentic Mexican heritage. Eduardo “Lalo” González and David “R” Carballido grew up together in Guadalajara, the capital of Mexico’s famed Jalisco tequila region. Lalo’s father and grandfather were famed Mexican tequila makers, and David has spent his career working with Mexico’s top tequila producers. So Lalo and David decided to create the purest expression of tequila and share it with the world. This means producing only tequila blanco purely crafted for a clean taste, with only three ingredients. We are now the fastest growing blanco tequila on the market.

We are headquartered in Austin and proudly manufactured in Jalisco, Mexico.
