1800 Reposado Tequila 1.75L

1800 Reposado Tequila 1.75L is a 100% Blue Weber agave reposado tequila bottled at 40% ABV in a 1.75-liter format. This expression earned a Gold Medal with 91 points at the 2024 Bartender Spirits Awards, underscoring its versatility as both a sipping tequila and a cocktail backbone.Quick Facts: ABV: 40% (80 Proof)  |  Origin: Jalisco, Mexico  |  Reposado (Oak-Aged Minimum 6 Months)  |  Distillery: La Rojeña (NOM 1122)Production & Heritage1800 Reposado is produced at La Rojeña, the oldest active distillery in the town of Tequila, Jalisco. Blue Weber agave piñas sourced from the Jalisco Highlands are slow-cooked in traditional masonry kilns for 36 to 40 hours before the extracted juice is double-distilled in copper pot stills. The spirit then rests for a minimum of six months in a combination of French and American oak barrels with high char and toast levels, a dual-barrel approach that distinguishes it from many single-oak reposados in its price range.Tasting NotesAroma: Bright citrus — lemon zest and lime peel — opens first, followed by fresh cracked pepper and green herbal notes. Underneath, a layer of toasted oak and cooked agave anchors the nose.Taste: The entry is creamy and soft, with buttery caramel and vanilla arriving on the mid-palate alongside gentle baking spice. As the liquid warms, mild smokiness surfaces next to ripe stone fruit and a thread of cinnamon, giving the reposado real depth without overwhelming the agave core.Finish: The finish runs long and peppery, closing with sweet orange peel, marzipan, and a faintly buttery texture. White pepper lingers at the very end, keeping the final impression dry and clean.How to Drink 1800 ReposadoNeat or over a single large ice cube is the most direct way to appreciate the barrel influence and creamy agave character. The 1.75L format makes this an especially practical choice for cocktail use. A Reposado Paloma benefits from the buttery caramel playing against grapefruit soda. A classic Margarita gains additional warmth and complexity from the oak-aged notes compared to a blanco base. A Tequila Old Fashioned lets the vanilla and baking-spice dimensions take center stage alongside agave syrup and mole bitters.Best For
