Tequila Reposado
Reposado tequila, meaning "rested" in Spanish, is a type of tequila that has been aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two months and up to one year. This aging process allows the tequila to develop more complex flavors compared to blanco tequila, while still retaining some of the fresh agave character.
Key features of Reposado Tequila:
Color: Light gold or amber, due to the time spent in oak barrels.
Flavor: A balance between the agave's natural flavors and the smooth, rich notes imparted by the wood, such as vanilla, caramel, and spices. It can also have slight fruit or nutty undertones.
Aging: Aged for a minimum of two months and up to one year, typically in oak barrels, which can vary in size and origin (often American or French oak).
Reposado tequila is versatile—it can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails. Its smoother, slightly more complex profile makes it popular for sipping and for use in high-end margaritas or other tequila-based drinks
For those just starting their premium sipping tequila journey, Reposado is the best value product that show cases the balancing act of agave notes and natural flavors imparted by the wood of oak barrels.
