Hornitos Reposado Tequila

Tequila: Hornitos ReposadoAs a reposado, this tequila is somewhere between the non-aged blancos and the much older añejos. Named after the ‘little ovens’ used to roast agave, Hornitos was introduced to the world in 1950. This Reposado rests for two months in large oak vats to ensure minimal contact with wood, giving it a livelier agave taste than most wood-treated tequilas. It’s light in color with a floral-vanilla scent and has a distinct, smoky finish.Order from the Largest & Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace!Featured in• ROLLING STONE• MEN’S JOURNAL• US WEEKLYNOTICE: Many other small liquor store sites will end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.
