Reposado Tequila

Category: Reposado Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Light clear amber color. Attractive, baked, woody, sweet aromas and flavors of roasted corn, agave, warm corn tortillas, whipped cream, and chocolate with a round, moderately sweet light-to-medium body and a tingling, engaging, medium-length finish with suggestions of corn tortilla, bitter cocoa dust, candy apple, agave, melted butter, vanilla cream, crushed flowers, and green agave. Carries its oak very well and balances out the agave; a lovely example of using the oak to accentuate the agave rather than just drowning it out.

Reposado ("rested") Tequila is aged in wooden tanks or casks for a legal minimum period of at least two months, with the better-quality brands spending three to nine months in wood. It can be either 100% agave or mixto. Reposado Tequilas are the best-selling Tequilas in Mexico.
