"La Rosa" - Bordeaux Rested Reposado
"La Rosa" - Bordeaux Rested Reposado
INFO
80 Proof (ABV 40%) | 750ml Bottle Size
Crafted from our El Platino, our "La Rosa" is a tequila like no other and was awarded “Gold Medal” by Tasting Panel magazine. Once a final filtration is completed, the tequila is then “rested” (reposado) for three months in previously used French oak casks and is the first Bordeaux wine barrel-rested tequila in the world. The Bordeaux resting imparts the natural pink color and gives the reposado a subtly sweet finish. The result is an unparalleled experience in taste.
