La Pulga Tequila announced the release of a new 90-proof limited-edition reposado tequila, finished in Still Austin Whiskey Co. Red Corn Bourbon barrels, bringing together the heritage of Jalisco with the spirit of Texas innovation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave grown in the Highlands of Jalisco,\u00a0Mexico, this special release begins as a seven-month reposado before undergoing a second\u00a0maturation in freshly harvested Still Austin Red Corn Bourbon barrels. The result is a richer,\u00a0more layered tequila that balances the natural warmth of agave with subtle spice and a\u00a0touch of sweet red corn complexity.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is one of those bottles that just makes you stop and say, \u2018okay, this is something really special,\u2019 especially considering that Still Austin Bottled in Bond Red Corn Bourbon is one of Still Austin\u2019s most sought-after releases,\u201d La Pulga Co-Founder Sarah Castillo, who created the brand alongside two other fellow Fort Worth-based entrepreneurs, said in a news release.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHaving spent time living in Austin, I\u2019ve long admired the originality and craftsmanship coming out of Still Austin, so finishing this tequila in their prized red corn bourbon barrels felt like a natural\u00a0evolution for us. It\u2019s still unmistakably La Pulga, but with added depth, a little extra character, and a story that connects two fast-growing, award-winning brands from two great\u00a0Texas cities, Austin and Fort Worth.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
This limited-edition release is brought to life through La Pulga\u2019s signature Mexican folk-art\u00a0\u201calebrije\u201d spirit animal, featured on every bottle. For this expression, a striking red serpent symbolizes transformation, creative energy, and the cultural bond between Mexico and Texas, while also nodding to the red snake imagery found on the Still Austin Bottled in Bond\u00a0Red Corn Bourbon label.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Also, for the first time in La Pulga\u2019s history, the bottle is finished\u00a0with a red keepsake medallion around the neck, designed to complement the red serpent label \u2013 an element destined to become a treasured collector\u2019s item.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV), La Pulga Tequila Reposado Double Barrel is crafted in small\u00a0batches using just three ingredients \u2013 100% Blue Weber Agave, time, and craftsmanship.\u00a0 The release will be available at select retailers beginning June 2026, and online HERE, with a\u00a0suggested retail price of $69.99.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis isn\u2019t just a special release for us, it\u2019s truly a must-try one of a kind,\u201d Castillo added.\u00a0 \u201cEvery bottle represents a moment in time. Once they\u2019re gone, they\u2019re gone, and we won\u2019t be making this expression again.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
