1800 Reposado is the rested expression of one of the world's most recognized premium tequila brands, named after the year that aged tequila first emerged in Mexico. Made from 100% Blue Weber Agave harvested at full maturity (8 to 12 years old) in the highlands and lowlands of Jalisco, the tequila is double distilled and then rested for at least six months in French oak and American oak barrels. The smooth, balanced profile bridges the bright agave character of a blanco with the gentle oak influence of an añejo, making it a classic choice for sipping, margaritas, and palomas. Bottled in the brand's signature trapezoidal pyramid bottle topped with a cork stopper that doubles as a shot glass.
