Description

Don Francisco Javier Sauza introduced Hornitos in 1950 in Tequila, Jalisco. The name refers to the little ovens traditionally used to roast agave. Made from 100% blue Weber agave, Hornitos Reposado takes on oak influence through aging. It is bottled at 40% ABV and has a warm golden color.

Earthy agave leads the aroma, accompanied by oak and a touch of vanilla. Cooked agave becomes more distinct on the palate. Caramel adds sweetness, while warm spices and oak give it shape. The texture is velvety and smooth. A warm finish follows the rounded palate.

Pour neat or over a few ice cubes to explore the agave and wood. For cocktails, try a Margarita, Paloma or Tequila Sunrise, with the reposado providing cooked agave and caramel notes.
