Honor an authentic piece of Mexican history with the World’s First Reposado – Tequila Herradura.
Over 50 years ago, Tequila Herradura forever changed the world of tequila by introducing a reposado. Today, Herradura is one of the only large-scale tequila producers to use 100% natural fermentation, a process that naturally imparts the flavors of the over 16 species of fruit trees that grow on the distillery property. Additionally, it has led the charge in sustainable tequila production for decades protecting the ecosystem of Amatitán, Jalisco.
Herradura Reposado (SRP $45) rests in charred American White Oak casks for a full nine-months, beyond industry standards – a minimum of 2 months! This award-winning original strikes a harmonious balance between heady depth and crisp flavor. A pioneer Reposado, 11-month barrel aging creates rich, amber hues with a palate of buttery agave and soft spices.
Check out this recipe below for Horseshoe Carajillo to really get into the reposado spirit.
