Lunazul Reposado Tequila

Lunazul Reposado rests six months in bourbon barrels — a Beckmann-family estate tequila at a price that makes reposado an everyday pour. Francisco Beckmann, former co-owner of Jose Cuervo, founded Tierra de Agaves in 2002 to make 100% agave tequila at a price everyone could afford; the Beckmanns are the oldest tequila dynasty in Mexico, the estate sits just outside the town of Tequila with agave lineage dating to 1758, and eighth-generation Jorge Beckmann runs it today with master tequilero Francisco Quijano; Heaven Hill brings it north. The Reposado is 100% estate-grown blue Weber agave, seven to nine years old, hand-harvested, cooked, double-distilled in copper alembics, rested at least six months in used bourbon barrels, and bottled at 40% ABV. Spirits Review: agaves nicely mature with understated terroir, and a very light coating with long legs on the glass. Total Wine: deeply rich, perfectly smooth, with a subtle, luxurious finish. Expect cooked agave, vanilla, and light caramel with a faint bourbon-barrel sweetness, a rounder body than the Blanco, and a smooth, clean, moderately long finish. Honest note: one of the best-value 100% agave reposados on the shelf — more agave than oak, from a real estate distillery — and the reposado Margarita workhorse of a thousand bars. For a reposado Margarita, on the rocks, or neat. Blue moon, rested.
