Tesoro Azul Reposado is an additive-free 100% blue Weber agave tequila from the highlands of Jalisco (NOM 1416), rested in oak and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Tesoro Azul is the tequila of Mexican singer-songwriter Marco Antonio Solís, who, passionate about his culture, set out to find a product that would represent Mexico and himself with dignity, and found it when he tasted Tesoro Azul on a visit to Jalisco's distilleries. The Reposado brings a commitment to additive-free craftsmanship, an honest expression of blue agave shaped by genuine barrel time.
Cooked agave leads, with subtle notes of wood, toasted nuts and white flowers, oak and caramel, finishing with a little pepper and spice: the perfect balance between the freshness of the Blanco and the elegant influence of the barrel.
The crest-embossed bottle makes it an elegant 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.
