Espíritu Alumbres Reposado is a 100% agave tequila from Tequila, Jalisco, rested 10 months in American white oak barrels and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Made from agave carefully selected from the producer's own fields, Espíritu Alumbres Reposado ripens for 10 months in American white oak, a long rest for the category that brings the wood and agave into balance. The brand's Day of the Dead-inspired artwork, with its Catrina figure framed in vivid flowers, celebrates the color of life.
Perfectly harmonized flavors between wood and agave come with subtle notes of apple, coconut, rosemary and vanilla, the herbal rosemary and fruit giving the reposado style its nuance.
The black bottle with its colorful Catrina label makes it a striking gift.
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.
Reposado tequila rests in oak for two months to under a year.
Ten months is a long rest for a reposado.
Serve it neat in a copita or small tulip glass.
Try it on the rocks with an orange slice.
It makes a rich, rounded Margarita.
It is a beautiful bottle for Día de Muertos celebrations.
