Process & Profile
Casamigos Reposado is meticulously crafted using 100% hand-selected Blue Weber agaves, grown in the rich red clay soil and cool climate of the Jalisco Highlands, Mexico. The agaves are harvested after maturing for at least seven years, ensuring optimal quality and flavor. The piñas are roasted in traditional stone ovens for 72 hours, followed by a proprietary extra-slow fermentation process lasting 80 hours—double the industry standard. The tequila is then distilled in copper-lined pot stills for added smoothness and aged for seven months in premium American white oak barrels that were previously used for aged whiskey. This careful process results in a silky, smooth tequila with no harshness, encapsulating the art of tequila craftsmanship.Tasting Notes
