Process & Profile
Siempre Tequila Reposado is meticulously handcrafted by the Vivanco Family in Arandas, Jalisco, a region renowned for its rich red soil and exceptional agave. The spirit is made from 100% Blue Weber agave, slow-cooked in stone/brick ovens, and extracted with a roller mill for maximum flavor retention. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, utilizing both champagne and rum yeast for added depth, and is enhanced by classical music—a unique touch believed to aid fermentation. After double-distillation in copper pot stills, Siempre Reposado is aged for six months in newly fired American white oak barrels, imparting a deep and complex character. Confirmed additive-free, this tequila is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).
