Distiller Notes
Aged to perfection, Don Julio Reposado Double Cask Tequila is the very essence of the perfect barrel-aged, ultra-premium tequila. Don Julio presents a full-bodied tequila with the taste of rich vanilla, caramel and subtle dried fruit. Made from hand-selected, ripe-harvested Blue Agave, they've double distilled this tequila and aged it in two different casks--first in American oak, then in repurposed barrels from Buchanan's Blended Scotch Whisky.
Proof: 80
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.
