Don Julio Reposado 750 ml

Eight months in ex-bourbon American white oak — four times the minimum the reposado category demands — turn Don Julio Reposado into a golden-amber tequila that keeps its agave backbone. The nose offers mellow lemon citrus and a touch of ripe stone fruit; the palate follows soft with dark chocolate, vanilla and light cinnamon; the finish lands silky and warm with dried fruit and caramel apple. Distilled from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the Jalisco Highlands, it was the house's first Reserva and the bottle that helped define luxury tequila. Reach for it when a margarita deserves better, or sip it over a single rock and let the barrel do the talking.
