Branded Content – Loca Loka
Loca Loka, an innovative tequila brand that blends the vibrant cultures of India and Mexico, is proud to announce that in the 2025 New York International Spirits Competition (NYISC), Loca Loka Reposado was awarded a Gold medal and the Blanco was awarded a Bronze.
Loca Loka Blanco Tequila, has the blend of the rounder fruity flavours of cooked agave along with the earthier floral flavours of the Highland agaves. The overall experience starts with the cooked agave showing up in the aroma, when sipped you get the fruity flavours and then the finish is subtle with the floral tones. Loca Loka Reposado is aged in French and American oak barrels for four-six months. The aging imparts a richer aroma and flavours of the Highland blends i.e. a continuation of the Blanco maturation journey.
The brand name, combining the Spanish “LOCA” (crazy) and the Sanskrit “LOKA” (world), captures the essence of a spirit that transcends borders, offering a unique blend of traditions, tastes and communal joy.
