Tasting Notes

Hornitos Reposado Tequila, produced by Sauza, is made from 100% blue Weber agave and rested in large American oak barrels for a minimum of two months. The nose opens with aromas of roasted agave, vanilla, and light oak accented by citrus and herbal notes. On the palate, it is smooth and approachable, offering flavors of honey, caramel, and butterscotch balanced by pepper, spice, and a touch of fruit. The oak aging adds warmth and depth while preserving the fresh agave character. The finish is medium in length, leaving lingering notes of vanilla, oak, and gentle spice.
