About the Tequila:
Produced in Los Altos in Jalisco at the famous La Alteña Distillery established by Don Felipe Camarena in 1937. Today his grandson, Carlos Camarena, is the master distiller. El Tesoro uses 100% estate-grown agave in its production. After cooking, the agaves are crushed using a tractor-pulled tahona. Post-distillation, the reposado is aged from 9-11 months in ex-bourbon barrels.

Double Gold – SF World Spirits Competition 2021

96 Points – Vinepair

“A favorite of both bartenders and agave aficionados, El Tesoro’s entire lineup ranks among the best in the tequila category. This reposado shows all of the distinctive floral and fresh berry notes that shine on the blanco, while also kicking in a subtle hint of sweet oak. This is among the finest expressions of reposado on the market.”

94 Points, Finalist – Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2021

“Pure agave aromas, reminiscent of spicy red pepper, mesquite, lime flower, lychee, and salted peach on the nose. The most delicate touch of oak shines through on the palate with hints of vanilla and coconut before a hint of pepper and sage finish.”

“Look for a pale straw hue and mild agave nectar aroma. The palate is both zingy and sweet, offering distinct notes of mint, bell pepper, fresh basil, lemon pepper and lime peel, plus fleeting vanilla into the cooling menthol exhale.” – Wine Enthusiast
