El Tequileno Reposado

750ml & 80 Proof

El Tequileno Reposado is a Tequila from the El Tequileno Tequila brand hailing from Mexico.

What is El Tequileno Reposado?

El Tequileño Reposado is a hidden gem in the tequila world, crafted using a unique blend of highland and lowland agaves to create a beautifully balanced spirit. What's particularly intriguing about this tequila is that it's aged in the world's largest tequila cask, a massive 25,000-liter container affectionately nicknamed "El Roble" (The Oak), which imparts subtle woody notes and a smooth finish to the spirit.

Why do we love El Tequileno Reposado?

El Tequileño Reposado stands out for its unique production method, blending Highland and Lowland agaves to create a balanced flavor profile that's uncommon in the tequila world. This reposado is also aged for three months in large 23,000-liter American oak pipon barrels, a technique that imparts subtle oak notes while preserving the agave's natural flavors, setting it apart from tequilas aged in smaller barrels.

How do you drink El Tequileno Reposado?

El Tequileño Reposado shines when sipped neat or over ice, allowing its smooth, agave-forward character to take center stage. This versatile tequila also excels in citrus-based cocktails or as a refined base for margarita variations, making it a perfect choice for warm summer evenings or pairing with grilled meats and seafood dishes that complement its subtle oak and vanilla notes.

Nose: Fresh agave nectar, lemon zest, and light oak. Subtle hints of vanilla and white pepper add depth. A faint grassy note reminds you of the tequila's origins.

Palate: Smooth entry with a gentle warmth. Cooked agave sweetness balanced by oak spice. Notes of caramel, cinnamon, and roasted nuts emerge. A touch of green apple and mineral undertones add complexity.

Finish: Medium-length with lingering warmth. Peppery spice fades to reveal soft agave and oak. A clean, slightly dry finish with hints of butterscotch and citrus peel.

El Tequileño Reposado is crafted using a unique blend of highland and lowland agave, which are slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens before fermentation and double distillation. What sets this tequila apart is its aging process - it rests for three months in large American oak pipon barrels, allowing for a gentle maturation that imparts subtle wood notes while maintaining the vibrant agave character.

  • El Tequileño Reposado is aged in the world's largest tequila cask, a massive 24,000-liter barrel nicknamed "La Mamacita," which is so large it had to be built inside the distillery as it wouldn't fit through the doors.
  • Despite being a reposado, El Tequileño is only aged for 3 months and 1 day - just 24 hours over the minimum required time for the category. This brief aging helps preserve the agave's natural flavors while adding subtle oak notes.
  • The brand was named after the town of Tequila itself, not its founder, making it one of the few tequilas that pays direct homage to its birthplace in its name. It's often referred to as "the tequila of tequila" by locals.
  • Main Ingredient: 100% Blue Weber Agave
