Adictivo Reposado Tequila

Adictivo Reposado is the middle of a line famous for its extra añejos — the blanco rested in French oak, in the tall, thin bottle. Adictivo is made by master distiller Gildardo Partida at NOM 1653 in El Arenal, Jalisco, from a family that's made tequila for over a century; the house style across the range is rich, smooth, and sweet, built for the sipping drinker who came from Cognac or bourbon. The Reposado is 100% blue Weber agave from the lowlands around El Arenal, slow-cooked in brick ovens, fermented with natural yeast, double-distilled in copper, and rested in French oak barrels for the reposado term, bottled at 40% ABV. French oak on a short rest leans toward vanilla, honey, and gentle spice rather than the heavy caramel of American barrels: expect a nose of cooked agave, vanilla, honey, and a touch of cinnamon with the house's characteristic softness, opening into a smooth, sweet palate of caramelized agave, light oak, butterscotch, and baking spice with almost no heat and a warm, easy finish. Honest note: Adictivo builds every expression to be smooth and sweet first, and this reposado is a dessert-leaning one — enthusiasts who want barrel spice and raw agave reach for Fortaleza or Tapatío; drinkers who want the smoothest reposado on the shelf and a bottle that looks the part reach for this. For a reposado Margarita, on the rocks, or neat. The addictive one, rested.
