Cabo Wabo
Reposado Tequila

Category: Reposado Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Bright slivery straw color. Creamy, nutty, toasty aromas and flavors of nougat, chocolate, roasted pineapple, and pecan with a soft, shy, dryish light body and a warming, brisk finish displaying accents of vanilla tapioca, vanilla toffee, and spiced papaya. A lovely, tingling reposado with a fine sweetness that will work well in cocktails.

Reposado ("rested") Tequila is aged in wooden tanks or casks for a legal minimum period of at least two months, with the better-quality brands spending three to nine months in wood. It can be either 100% agave or mixto. Reposado Tequilas are the best-selling Tequilas in Mexico.
