El Tesoro Reposado Tequila 750ml
El Tesoro Reposado is crafted at the historic La Alteña Distillery in Arandas, Jalisco, established in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena and now run by his grandson, master distiller Carlos Camarena. Made from 100 percent estate-grown Blue Weber agave harvested from the mineral-rich highlands of Los Altos, the agave is slow-cooked in traditional stone ovens, crushed using a tractor-pulled tahona, and double-distilled in copper pot stills before resting in American oak ex-bourbon barrels for 9 to 11 months, well beyond the two-month legal minimum for reposado classification.
