(Distiller: Melly Barajas)
CRITICAL ACCLAIM:
"Look for a pale straw hue and fruity/funky aromas. The palate offers distinct tropical fruit notes, opening with lychee and a faint floral hint, plus a faint waft of ripe-banana funk midpalate. The finish is long and drying, showing grapefruit peel and pink peppercorn. Sip or mix into Palomas." - 95 PTS, “BEST BUY”, “100 BEST SPIRITS OF 2021”, WINE ENTHUSIAST
PRODUCER NOTES:
OVERVIEW: “La Gritona Reposado is a 100% de agave tequila distilled by Melly Cardenas at her small distillery (NOM 1533) in Valle de Guadalupe in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Rested for 8 months the tequila is then bottled in one of the most distinctive bottles on the market, hand blown from recycled Mexican Coke bottles.”
TASTING: “Very vegetal, without the sweetness, oakiness, or vanilla that is often associated with a highland reposado. You will not find a rounder finish in the tequila world. A perfect tequila for sipping with a beer on the side, no need for lime or ice.”
