Description

Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado is a 100% blue agave tequila. That sets it apart from Cuervo's mixto bottles, which blend agave with other sugars. Cuervo calls it a family estate grown, small-batch tequila. It recreates the style the Cuervo family first made back in 1795.

The tequila is made at La Rojeña in the town of Tequila, Jalisco. Cuervo says it is the oldest working distillery in Latin America. After distilling, the spirit rests in charred oak barrels. That short rest gives it a light straw color and rounds off the edges. It is bottled at 40% ABV, or 80 proof.

The first thing you will notice is sweet cooked agave. On the palate, stewed tropical fruit joins the agave. Then come gentle spice and sweetness. Vanilla, clove, cinnamon and toffee linger on the finish. It is mellow, so it never feels harsh.

Tradicional Reposado took a Silver Medal at the 2006 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It has long been a smart, good-value pick in the premium tequila aisle.

You can sip it neat or over ice. Cuervo's own favorite serve is a Tradicional Paloma with grapefruit soda and lime. It also makes a rounder Margarita than a blanco would. If you like a ready-to-drink option, browse our popular cocktails too. For food, try tacos al pastor, grilled meats or ceviche.

This bottle is a friendly step up if you usually drink mixto tequila. It is also a good everyday reposado for agave fans who want soft oak and spice.
