La Gritona Reposado Tequila
About La Gritona Reposado Tequila
This beautiful reposado tequila and striking bottle come from the southern highlands of Jalisco, namely NOM 1533. Aged for eight months then bottled in glass from recycled Coca-Cola bottles, this tequila strikes a balance between form and function. Sippers note white pepper, vanilla, and cooked agave flavors. And, La Gritona Reposado Tequila bottle shines on any home bar.
Recommended by: Sother Teague, creator of the Ash and Elm and selected as a recommended spirit to pair with Shaker & Spoon’s Shift Drinks: Reposado Remix Box.
“La Gritona Reposado Tequila strives to do everything right, from patiently waiting up to 10 years for the agave plant to mature in the mineral-rich Jalisco highlands to quickly processing and cooking them within 24 hours to natural open fermentation and American oak–barrel resting for 8 months.”
“The result is a lightly straw-hued expression that maintains a soft vegetal quality with hints of agave. It’s ideal for sipping neat alongside a beer or blending into delicious cocktails!” raves Sother Teague.
