Amor Mío Reposado is a 100% agave tequila made from estate-grown blue Weber agave, slow-roasted in clay ovens, double distilled and rested for about 11 months in French and American oak. It is bottled at 40% ABV in a hand-painted ceramic bottle.
Amor Mío is known as much for its striking ceramic bottles as for its smooth, honey-forward tequila. This bottle is painted in rich blues and golds inspired by Mexican folk art and the embroidered attire of the charro, the traditional Mexican horseman.
The nose brings soft vanilla, caramel, toasted oak and cooked agave. On the palate come honeyed agave, cinnamon, clove and a faint fruit sweetness, and the finish lingers with oak, sweet spice and a touch of herbal brightness.
The ceramic bottle makes it a beautiful gift and a lovely display piece.
Sip it neat or on the rocks in a wide-mouthed glass to appreciate the aromas.
Reposado, meaning rested, is tequila aged between two months and a year in oak, which gives it a pale gold colour and a gentle touch of wood while keeping the agave bright and lively.
Tequila can only be made from blue Weber agave in five designated Mexican states, chiefly Jalisco, and the finest bottlings are made from 100% agave. Sipping tequila is best enjoyed from a narrow-rimmed glass that concentrates the aromas, at room temperature and without salt or lime, so the character of the agave and the barrel can come through.
