Laya Reposado Black Edition is a certified organic, 100% blue Weber agave reposado tequila, the bolder, darker counterpart to the standard Laya Reposado. It is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).
The Black Edition is aged in charred oak barrels, which give it a rich, deep mahogany colour, a more pronounced wood influence and a heavier body than typical reposados, while keeping the brand's organic, additive-free approach.
Laya tequilas are made at Tequila Las Américas (NOM 1480) in Jalisco, a distillery known for organic production.
In its sleek black bottle, the Black Edition is a striking gift and a reposado for drinkers who enjoy the character of the barrel.
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.
