Don Julio Reposado is a Mexican tequila rested for eight months in American white oak barrels. That time in wood turns it golden amber and gives it a rich, smooth finish, the mark of a well made barrel-aged tequila. It is bottled at 40% ABV.
On the nose there is mellow lemon citrus, layers of spice and a touch of ripe stone fruit. The palate is soft and elegant, with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and light cinnamon. The finish is silky and warm, with dried fruit, nuts and a touch of caramel apple.
This is a tequila for sipping chilled on the rocks, or for a tasting cocktail where the spirit stays in front, such as a reposado old fashioned or a well made margarita. It suits anyone moving on from blanco tequila who wants more roundness without the heavier oak of an anejo. Ralph's sells it with Metro Manila delivery.
