La Gritona Tequila Reposado

40.0% | 70.0cl

Crafted by master distiller Melly Barajas and her all-female team in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, La Gritona Reposado is an additive-free tequila that redefines what a reposado can be.
Made from fully mature 8-10 year-old blue agave grown in Jalisco’s iron-rich red soil, the agave is slowly cooked, naturally fermented, and double distilled to preserve its vibrant character. The tequila is then rested for six months in repeatedly used American whiskey barrels, allowing it to mellow without overpowering the natural agave flavours.
The result is a remarkably smooth, crisp and botanical tequila with subtle oak influence, light colour, and exceptional balance. Every bottle is produced under one roof using traditional methods, sustainably crafted, and packaged in bottles made from 100% recycled glass.
Pure agave. No additives. No shortcuts. Just authentic tequila made with care.

Tasting Note

La Gritona is light on sweetness and retains the aroma and true essence of the plant from which it was distilled. Though LG has rested for 6 months in oak, the taste is herbaceous, with agave notes that have not been “whiskified” by the barreling process. It is a very vegetal tequila, without any oak, pepper, vanilla or dulce de leche that can be associated with a highland reposado.
