Distiller Notes
Golden shades and greenish overtones compliment the straw yellow color that it has. It is unique in its class, thanks to the meticulous care it receives and its permanence during 8 months in white oak barrels. Its intense personality gives smooth nuances of the olfactory barrel and a dominant cooked agave flavor and notes of wood to the palate.

This is very pale in the glass, but with a zesty, savory aroma that suggests fresh oregano and basil. The palate melds that herbaceousness with hints of almond and lemon cream, plus cinnamon and white pepper on the elongated finish. Sip or mix.
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.
