Intensely brilliant and luminous, with silvery hues and strong body, allows enjoying its excellent distillation, leaving a trail of scents with a subtle endnote of cooked agave. Either straight or mixed, the nature of agave stands at all times.
Siete Leguas, named after the horse belonging to Pancho Villa, is a Highlands tequila from Atotonilco El Alto. Agave piå_as are harvested, cooked in ovens, and then pressed by either a mule-driven tahona or shredded by more contemporary techniques. The aguamiel (honey-water) is then fermented and distilled. The reposado expression is aged for eight months in white oak barrels.
One of the more appealing bottles of tequila I've ever purchased is hands down the Tequila Texano Reposado. Shaped like a boot, the bottle comes with two shot glasses which are held close to the top of the bottle, almost like spurs on a cowboy boot.
