Reposado - Meaning "aged" or "rested" is mellow and aged and is the senior member of the pride. It is achieved by adding blanco spirit to American oak barrels resting for 3 - 6 months in American oak barrels where the colour and flavour of the wood draws into the spirit. A slightly sweet beginning from the oak with a smoky aftertaste and wooden undertones. Great for the whiskey drinker. Best served on ice or on ice with a squeeze of lime
