Distiller Notes
Wild Common tequila reposado is lightly aged in American bourbon barrels hand selected by the team. Agave is the star of the show and has been elegantly blended with the characteristics of natural oak barrels. Notes of vanilla, freshly roasted pecans, cinnamon, and raw honey come through. Balanced in its presentation, there are hints of dark fruits like raisins and dates, framed by the sweetness of the agave. At 43% ABV, this Wild Common tequila reposado has layers of complexity and will hold your attention.
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.
