Distiller Notes
Bright golden color with silver hues and great body. Intense aroma has been obtained in American oak barrels like vanilla, caramel, coconut and maple. The cooked agave is intense and sweet; the herbal aroma like mint, orange, lemon and grapefruit fresh has developed the 4 Copas Reposado style – Balanced and elegant. In the mouth it is sweet and soft. Notes of vanilla, coconut and cooked agave. The mouthfeel is intense and the after taste is pleasantly bitter.
To fully enjoy its personality, you should first chill to 18°C then oxygenate in the glass for 20 minutes.

The mild aroma shows the faintest whiff of dried herbs. That herbaceous quality is more pronounced on palate, reading as hints of lavender, sage, rosemary. Finishes mouthwatering, with lemony zing and a mellow brush of vanilla and agave nectar.
Tequila Reposado refers to Tequilas that have been ‘rested’, or aged, in oak barrels for a minimum of two months but not more than one year. Depending on the specific flavors a tequilero wishes to impart on the spirit, a variety of different barrels may be used, from Brandy and Bourbon, to Wine and Sherry. The time spent on the wood allows Reposado Tequilas to mellow as they age, softening and rounding powerful flavor components brought by the agave and marrying them to subtle notes of caramel and vanilla brought by the barrel itself.
