Corralejo Triple Distilled Reposado is a 100% blue Weber agave tequila that undergoes an uncommon triple distillation process, resulting in an ultra-smooth and pure spirit. After distillation, it is rested for four months in American oak barrels, giving it the soft golden hue and mellow character of a reposado, while retaining the bright, crisp flavors of a blanco.
Crafted at the historic Hacienda Corralejo in Guanajuato, Mexico, this tequila blends tradition with refinement, making it ideal for sipping or premium cocktails.
