This Reposado has been aged for 8 months in American White Oak barrels. It has a nice golden hue and an agave forward nose. The nose is more rounded than the Blanco which was expected. The cooked agave is front and forward and it’s foreshadowing some buttery cooked agave on the palate. There are hints of orange citrus and some light barrel spices that round out the nose. - That buttery cooked agave is there and so are the barrel spices that American White Oak is known to contribute. There’s white pepper that’s attached to the barrel spices. The cooked agave provides a natural sweetness that the orange citrus clings to. The finish has hints of sweetness but it’s mostly warm and peppery. - The taste outshines the nose and the finish is pleasantly peppery. This Reposado is solid and flavorful without being too dense or over-oaked. - Cardenas Legacy Tequila can be purchased online.
