Reposado Tequila

Reposado tequila is aged in oak barrels for a period of two months to one year, giving it a smooth and balanced profile. This type of Tequila is known for combining the fresh, herbaceous notes of agave with the richer, more complex flavours of vanilla, caramel, and soft spices imparted by the wood. The golden-hued spirit often seen as the bridge between its younger sibling, blanco, and the more mature añejo. The ageing process is not long enough to fully mellow the bold agave flavours, but it is sufficient to instil the tequila with a gentle oaken warmth. This makes reposado an exquisite choice for both sipping neat and shaking into sophisticated cocktails. It is as at home in a Margarita as it is in a Tequila Old Fashioned, where its nuanced flavours can stand up to mixers while still making a distinct impression. Yet, for many, reposado is best enjoyed neat, perhaps with a side of sangrita, a traditional chaser that enhances its complex profile.
