Golden straw color. Aromas and flavors of roasted honey malt, mallow root, vanilla, and candied orange and cinnamon with a velvety, vibrant, dry medium body and an interesting, medium-length finish imparting notes of cinnamon roll and fig, caramel and bread pudding, apple and pear, and stroopwaffel and white pepper. Rich vanilla and barrel spice flavors and aromas that will appeal to drinkers of finely aged spirits.

Reposado ("rested") Tequila is aged in wooden tanks or casks for a legal minimum period of at least two months, with the better-quality brands spending three to nine months in wood. It can be either 100% agave or mixto. Reposado Tequilas are the best-selling Tequilas in Mexico.
