Sip on this Tequila and watch it evolve. At first, the aroma roars out of the glass with bold bell pepper and caramel, yet as it sits it morphs to delicate vanilla and fresh pear. It's a similar experience on the palate. At first the flavors fairly explode with loads of agave and pepper, then it finishes short, crisp and grassy. Aged between six and nine months in former Bourbon barrels.
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.
