El Tesoro Single Barrel Private Selection Reposado Tequila

Tequila Reposado| 40% ABV

Commercial Description:

When it comes to Tequila there are few names as associated with quality, additive-free Tequila El Tesoro, a 100% Agave Tequila made in the Highlands of Jalisco. El Tesoro is distilled at the La Altea Distillery in Arandas. The La Altea distillery was founded by Don Felipe Camarena in 1937 as the area was mineral rich. Today, El Tesoro de Don Felipe is distilled by his grandson, Carlos Camarena.

El Tesoro is known amongst Agave enthusiasts the world over as a brand that represents quality. There are no additives found in the Tequila and it is made in the traditional way using stone or brick ovens to roast the mature Agave before crushing them with a giant volcanic rock known as a Tahona.

We here at Vintage Wine and Spirits as well as our partners at Love Scotch and Shop Bourbon are excited to make available to you our newest Singel Barrel selection, a Reposado Tequila from El Tesoro. Reposado Tequila carries a minimum age of 3 months, but were proud to boast that our barrel of El Tesoro is aged 9 months in ex-Bourbon to impart some rich barrel notes.
