El Tesoro Tequila Reposado Single Barrel "Tahona Reponejo" – Hi Proof Store Pick B019-L363(750ml)
Overview
This Single Barrel Reposado from El Tesoro, crafted using the traditional Tahona method, is a Hi Proof hand-selected Store Pick (#B019-L363). Aged 8 months, this barrel sits at the intersection where Reposado's smoothness meets Añejo's depth — yet still retains the vibrant, unmistakable agave character of a Blanco. That's why we named it "Tahona Reponejo."
Tasting Notes
Nose: Roasted agave with sweet, earthy aromatics, soft vanilla, light oak, and a clean citrus zest finish.
Palate: A full-bodied wave of roasted agave leads into caramelized sweetness, white pepper, and bright minerality. The signature texture and weight of Tahona-pressed tequila come through beautifully.
Finish: Long and warming, with peppery spice and lingering oak.
Why "Tahona Reponejo"?
- 8 Months of Aging — Sits at the upper end of the Reposado range (2–11 months), just shy of Añejo territory (12+ months). It carries maturity without losing freshness.
- Tahona-Pressed — A traditional volcanic stone wheel slowly crushes the cooked agave. Far more labor- and time-intensive than mechanical pressing, but it captures the purest expression of agave flavor.
- Blanco Character Preserved — Despite 8 months in oak, the fresh, vegetal agave notes remain front and center rather than being overwhelmed by wood.
- Single Barrel — Hand-selected and tasted by the Hi Proof team. Never blended with any other barrel.
About El Tesoro
El Tesoro is produced at La Alteña Distillery in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Founded in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena and now run by the fourth generation of the Camarena family, La Alteña is one of the few distilleries still preserving every traditional technique: Tahona stone milling, 100% Blue Weber agave, open-air fermentation, and direct-fire copper pot distillation — methods that are increasingly rare in the modern tequila industry.
