Reposado Tequila, meaning "rested" in Spanish, is a type of tequila that undergoes aging in wooden barrels for a minimum of two months but less than one year. This short aging period imparts Reposado with a balance of agave flavors and the subtle influence of the wood. As it rests in oak barrels, it develops a pale golden hue and takes on notes of vanilla, caramel, and spice.
History
Reposado Tequila, meaning "rested" in Spanish, represents a middle ground in tequila aging. It is aged in wooden barrels for a minimum of two months but less than a year. The practice of aging tequila began in the early 20th century, and Reposado emerged as a distinct category in the mid-20th century. This brief aging process results in a tequila with a balance of agave flavors and subtle oak influence. It has gained popularity since the mid-20th century, offering a smoother alternative to Blanco Tequila while preserving the vibrancy of the agave. The name "Reposado" itself reflects the character of this tequila, as it implies a restful period of maturation that allows the spirit to mellow and develop nuanced flavors.
