Loca Loka is making its much-anticipated debut on 29 November 2024. This bold new spirit is set to shake up the city’s spirits scene with its unique combination of festive flavours and cultural heritage.
A Celebration of Two Cultures
Launched in the USA in August 2024, Loca Loka has already captured the hearts of tequila enthusiasts with its innovative twist. By marrying Mexico’s rich agave tradition with the sweet and spicy notes of Indian cuisine, this tequila delivers a distinctive tasting experience unlike any other.
Crafted in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, Loca Loka is made from 100% pure highland agave, distilled without additives, and perfected through a meticulous five-step process. The result? A tequila that seamlessly blends the sweetness of agave with the spice of India, celebrating the bold spirit of both cultures.
Meet the Visionaries Behind the Brand
Loca Loka is the brainchild of three creative minds from Ironhill Hospitality:
- Harsha Vadlamudi, CEO and founder, spearheads the vision for this groundbreaking tequila.
- Rana Daggubati, acclaimed Indian actor, brings star power and storytelling to the brand.
- Anirudh Ravichander, celebrated music composer, infuses artistry into the tequila’s narrative.
Together, they’ve created a brand that embodies cultural fusion, craftsmanship, and a sense of global celebration.
What’s in a Name?
The name “Loca Loka” itself is a blend of worlds: “Loca” means “crazy” in Spanish, while “Loka” translates to “world” in Sanskrit. The name reflects the vibrant energy of Mexico and the deep cultural roots of India, perfectly capturing the tequila’s spirit.
Two Distinct Flavours to Explore
Loca Loka offers tequila lovers two exceptional variations:
- Tequila Blanco: A crisp, refreshing option with fruity agave notes and a floral earthiness from highland agaves. Perfect for sipping or mixing into cocktails.
- Tequila Reposado: Aged six months in American and French oak barrels, this smooth, balanced tequila delivers hints of oak and a rich depth of flavour, ideal for seasoned connoisseurs and newcomers alike.
Exclusive Singapore Launch Event
Loca Loka’s Singapore debut will be marked by an exclusive launch event on 29 November 2024, featuring the founders Harsha Vadlamudi, Rana Daggubati, and Anirudh Ravichander. Guests will get to experience this exciting cultural blend firsthand through curated tastings and stories behind the brand.
