Excellia Reposado Tequila
Excellia Reposado is the middle of a three-bottle range created in 2011 by French oenologist Jean-Sébastien Robicquet, the man behind Cîroc vodka, and tequilero Carlos Camarena of La Alteña distillery (NOM 1139) in Arandas, in the Highlands of Jalisco. The partnership set out to bridge French wine and spirits traditions with tequila, and its signature is the cask program: every expression is aged in a combination of Grand Cru Sauternes wine casks and Cognac barrels, with the two parcels blended together before bottling. The spirit itself is made from estate-grown blue Weber agave of around twelve years old, slow-cooked in brick ovens, fermented in wooden vats and double distilled in copper pot stills. The Reposado spends nine months in those French casks. Excellia describes a golden straw color and a complex nose of honey, toasted wood, mushroom, dried lavender, jasmine and violet. The palate is round and broad, with rich honey, cigar box and caramelized agave alongside subtle rancio and orchard fruit, and the finish is long, spicy and earthy. It keeps the fruit-forward character of Los Altos agave while the Sauternes casks add a soft, wine-like depth. Sip it neat, or use it in a reposado Old Fashioned.
