Hornitos Reposado Tequila 750ml
Hornitos was born in 1950 in Jalisco, Mexico, to commemorate Mexican independence, and has taken its own approach to tequila ever since. Hornitos Reposado is crafted from 100 percent blue Weber agave, double-distilled first in a column still and then in a stainless steel pot still, before resting in American oak vats known as pipones for at least two months, well within the traditional reposado style.
Specs
- Producer: Hornitos, Jalisco, Mexico
- Agave: 100% blue Weber agave
- Aging: Minimum 2 months in American oak pipones

Tasting Notes
- Nose: Fresh agave, vanilla, and light herbal notes with hints of oak
- Palate: Balanced sweet agave, warm spice, and a touch of caramel
- Finish: Smooth and medium-length with subtle oak and pepper
With its limited wood contact keeping the agave character front and center while still gaining a smoother, more rounded body, Hornitos Reposado sits between the brighter Plata and richer Anejo, making it a versatile choice for both sipping and mixing into a Margarita or Paloma.
