Don Ramon Tamarindo Plata Tequila
Don Ramon Tamarindo Plata Tequila is a 750mL tamarind-flavored plata tequila from Casa Don Ramón — 35% ABV per the brand's own launch announcement — made entirely from blue Weber agave grown in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico. Launched in Mexico in 2021 and brought to the US in 2023, it pairs the house's smooth double-distilled plata with tamarindo, one of Mexico's most iconic flavors: bright, zesty, and slightly spicy.

Tamarindo Meets Plata
Tamarind is everywhere in Mexico — in aguas frescas, candies, and micheladas — and Casa Don Ramón saw the opening in the US, where tamarind-flavored tequila options were thin. The base is the house plata: double-distilled, clean and bright, with citrus and agave character, lifted by tamarind's sweet-tart punch. Serve it as a chilled shot or build it into cocktails — explore more tequila or the full Don Ramon lineup at Del Mesa Liquor.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Fresh agave and citrus lifted by sweet-tart tamarind (brand notes).
Palate: Clean plata character — bright agave, citrus — with zesty tamarind and a gentle spicy edge.
Finish: Refreshing and smooth, with tamarind lingering.
How to Enjoy
Serve well chilled as a shot — that is how the brand recommends it — or shake it into a tamarind margarita with lime and a Tajín rim. It also brightens a simple paloma-style highball.
