Xicaru Mezcal Reposado

Description

Fernando Santibaez saw an opportunity to create a traditional mezcal with a nuanced and balanced profile while retaining the distinct indentity of traditional mezcal. Xicaru Reposado is aged naturally and gently in small batches reflecting Fernandos great respect for both the maguey and tradition. As with Xicaru Silver Xicaru Reposado is made with 100% Maguey espadin cooked in a conical stone oven with mesquite and ocote woods. After tahona-mashing natural fermentation and double-distilling the mezcal is ready for aging two to four months in medium-toasted American oak barrels. Barrel aging naturally imparts both the straw color and subtle sweet notes that complement the unique characteristics of a traditional mezcal.
