When it comes to tequila, there’s more to the story than just shots and margaritas.

If you’ve ever explored the world of tequila, you might have come across terms like Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo. Each of these represents a unique aging process and flavor profile. Today, let’s dive into the golden middle ground of tequila: Reposado—a category celebrated for its balance of youth and maturity.

What Does Reposado Mean?

The term Reposado translates to “rested” in Spanish. In the tequila world, this refers to a tequila that has been aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two months and up to one year. This resting period allows the tequila to develop a richer flavor profile compared to unaged Blanco tequilas while maintaining a smooth, approachable character.

How is Reposado Tequila Made?

• Distillation: Like all tequila, Reposado starts with the fermentation and distillation of blue Weber agave.
• Aging: After distillation, Reposado tequila is transferred into oak barrels, where it rests and matures. These barrels may be new or previously used to age other spirits, like whiskey or wine, adding unique layers of flavor.
• Filtration and Bottling: Once it reaches the desired flavor, the tequila is filtered and bottled, ready to bring its golden hues and complex tastes to your glass.

Reposado tequila is an excellent choice for both beginners and connoisseurs. It’s less intense than Añejo but more refined than Blanco, striking a perfect middle ground. Its versatility makes it a favorite for cocktails like the classic Margarita or the festive Tequila Sunrise. Plus, its smooth finish means it’s just as enjoyable on its own.
