Dulce Vida Reposado Tequila 100 Proof

Dulce Vida Reposado won Best of Category at the 2012 Los Angeles International Spirits Competition — organic highland agave rested in bourbon barrels and bottled at 100 proof. Dulce Vida launched in 2009 out of Austin as the first 100-proof, USDA-organic tequila, made at NOM 1443, the Don Pilar distillery in the Los Altos highlands, from 100% organic blue Weber agave; the brand says it doesn't buy contract liquid but runs its own yeast, distillation, and barrels. The Reposado is organic highland agave cooked, fermented with proprietary yeast, distilled, rested in used American bourbon barrels for the reposado term, and bottled at 50% ABV, additive-free. TasteTequila calls the brand 100-proof tequila done right. Tequila.net's reviewers found the blanco and reposado big, herbaceous, unique, and well-crafted, with a ton of flavor and a lot of thought in the brand. Expect the Blanco's bursting agave, white pepper, and lemon — Drinkhacker's notes — softened by the barrel into vanilla, honey, and light caramel, still bold and peppery at 100 proof, with a long, warm, spiced finish. Honest note: a high-proof reposado is a rare thing, and this one keeps the agave loud under the oak — for the drinker who finds 80-proof reposados thin, and for a reposado Old Fashioned that doesn't wash out. Neat with a splash, or in a cocktail that needs backbone. Sweet life, rested, at 100.
