Production Process:

• Agave Harvest: The journey begins with Agave Piñas, harvested by skilled Jimadores.
• Baking: The Piñas are slowly baked for 4 days to develop deep, complex flavors.
• Crushing: After baking, the Piñas are crushed to extract the Mosto.
• Fermentation: The Mosto is fermented using an 80-year-old yeast culture.
• Distillation: Double-distilled in traditional Tequilano Pot Stills.
• Aging: The tequila is aged for 8 months (well beyond the required 2 months) in used Jim Beam American oak barrels, which impart notes of caramel, oak, and smoke.
• Finishing: The Reposado is lightly filtered and then bottled, preserving its rich character.

Accolades:

• 93 Points - Wine Enthusiast: "Tapatio's new expression has intriguingly savory, almost meaty flavors that seem a shame to hide beneath fruit juices."
• Distiller.com: "This is a fine example of a Reposado... It’s very subtle and easy to sip, without being over-oaked."
