True to Komos’ craftsmanship, this expression is made in Mexico using perfectly ripe 100% Blue Weber Agave, hand-harvested from the distinct terroirs of both the highlands and lowlands of the Tequila Valley in Jalisco. The piñas are roasted in traditional stone ovens, and the aguamiel is naturally fermented and twice distilled in copper pot stills. It is then aged in the finest barrels with red grape skins, which impart a beautiful, natural pink hue. The final touch is gentle aeration: the winemaking technique of tumbling the liquid to make the mouthfeel softer and smoother, while adding richness and roundness.
Komos Reposado Rosa is aged in French oak red wine barrels for two months to create a reposado unlike any other.
