Hacienda Lopez Reposado Tequila, crafted in the heart of Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico, undergoes a meticulous process to deliver a distinctive and refined spirit. Starting with 100% Blue Weber Agave, the tequila is double-distilled, ensuring a pure and authentic foundation. Following this, it rests gracefully for 30 days in stainless steel tanks, allowing the initial flavors to harmonize.
The journey continues as Hacienda Lopez Reposado Tequila matures for six months in oak whiskey barrels. This careful aging process imparts a nuanced character to the tequila, a hallmark of Reposado varieties. Reposado tequilas, aged between 2 and 11 months, possess a remarkable transformation—gaining a softer, smoother, and more aromatic profile compared to Blanco tequilas.
The choice of oak barrels, in this case, adds an extra layer of complexity to the flavor, influenced by the characteristics of the wood. As a result, Hacienda Lopez Reposado Tequila emerges as a finely balanced spirit, marrying the rich heritage of Jalisco craftsmanship with the unique notes derived from its time-honored aging in oak whiskey barrels. This tequila is a testament to the artistry and expertise that defines the Reposado category.
