The 2026 Latin America World Spirits Competition brought together some of the finest spirits across the region, showcasing excellence in craftsmanship, terroir, and innovation. Among a highly competitive field, one expression rose decisively to the top: The Lost Explorer Tequila Blanco, earning Best Blanco Tequila, Best Overall Tequila, and the competition’s highest distinction, Best in Show Agave Spirit. This remarkable achievement cements its place as one of the most compelling Blanco tequilas on the global stage.

The Lost Explorer is rooted in sustainability, exploration, and respect for nature. Produced in Amatitán, Jalisco, in collaboration with Maestro Tequilero Enrique de Colsa, the tequila is made from 100% Blue Weber agave harvested at full maturity. Traditional stone oven cooking, fermentation with Champagne yeast, and small-batch double distillation result in a pure, additive-free spirit that reflects both terroir and technique.

With its balance of bright citrus, earthy agave, and refined minerality, The Lost Explorer Tequila Blanco exemplifies the evolution of modern tequila — where tradition, innovation, and sustainability converge. Its top honors at this year’s competition firmly establish it as one of the leading Blanco tequilas in the world.
