Tequila Torero Reposado Huichol Art Edition is a 100% agave tequila from Arenal, Jalisco, rested for six months in white oak barrels and presented in a handmade, lead-free ceramic bottle. It is bottled at 40% ABV.
The bottle is a small work of folk art: a round red ceramic vessel opens onto a bullring scene with a matador in the centre, and its surface is decorated in the bold, colourful patterns of Huichol art. The Huichol, or Wixárika, people of western Mexico are famous for their vivid beadwork and yarn paintings, with designs drawn from their sacred symbols.
Six months in white oak gives the reposado a smooth, distinguished character, with a fruity agave aroma and a gentle touch of wood.
Each bottle is handmade, making it a colourful centrepiece for any bar and a memorable gift for collectors of Mexican art.
Sip it neat, or enjoy it over ice.
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.
