Cazcanes No. 7 Reposado Tequila

Product Description

Cazcanes No. 7 Reposado Tequila: Organic, Additive-Free Reposado, Aged to Taste, Not Time

Cazcanes No. 7 Reposado is made from 100% organic blue Weber agave by Master Distiller Francisco “Don Chico” Jiménez Lazcarro at NOM 1614 in Amatitán, in Jalisco’s Tequila Valley. Cazcanes makes its tequila traditionally, in small batches, and uses natural spring water from the Navichi spring, which it trucks in for each production. It’s certified organic and kosher and verified additive-free. The “7” is the proof: this is 80 proof (40% ABV).

The brand ages the reposado “to taste, not time.” It selects used American oak barrels that previously held bourbon, reworks and rechars them to its specifications, and blends barrels aged from a few months to nearly a year (up to 11 months) so the agave and the oak stay in balance. Each batch is blended on its own, so expect slight differences. The result bridges the bright character of a blanco with the depth of longer-aged tequilas. It has earned a 2020 SIP Gold, a Gold at the Beverage Testing Institute (94 to 95 points), and 95 points from Tastings.com, according to the brand and retailers.
