Corzo Reposado 750ML

Corzo Reposado 750ML is a triple-distilled, 100% blue agave reposado tequila bottled at 40% ABV. Awarded 94 points by Wine Enthusiast and a Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, it stands apart through a proprietary double-mellowing process rarely seen in the tequila world.Quick Facts: ABV: 40%  |  Origin: Los Altos (Highlands), Jalisco, Mexico  |  Reposado (Aged 2–4 Months)  |  NOM 1487 – Tequila Cazadores De Arandas (Bacardi)Production & HeritageCorzo is produced at NOM 1487 in the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco, a region prized for mineral-rich red clay soils that yield sweeter, more aromatic blue agave. What genuinely distinguishes the Reposado from virtually every other tequila on the market is its double-mellowed, triple-distilled production sequence. After the second distillation, the spirit rests for two to four months in American white oak barrels, then undergoes a third distillation — a step that smooths the oak influence and integrates barrel character directly into the distillate rather than simply layering it on top. This technique makes Corzo Reposado one of the only tequilas to be mellowed prior to a final distillation pass.Tasting NotesAroma: Cooked agave arrives first, followed by soft vanilla and a wisp of toasted oak. Subtle honey sweetness and a light citrus lift — think lemon zest — round out the nose.Taste: The entry is lightly sweet with ripe dark fruit and grilled pineapple giving way to a mid-palate of warm honey and almond. As the spirit develops, gentle spice and coconut emerge alongside mellow oak, delivering surprising complexity for a reposado with a relatively short aging window.Finish: Medium in length and silky in texture, the finish trails off with lingering vanilla and a faint echo of toasted white oak. The triple distillation keeps everything clean — no bitterness or astringency in sight.How to Drink Corzo ReposadoThe smooth, layered profile rewards neat sipping at room temperature; a few drops of water open up the honey and fruit notes without diluting the agave core. Corzo Reposado also excels in cocktails:
Oaxacan Old Fashioned — the honey and oak backbone stands up to a mezcal split-base and agave syrup.
Paloma — the lemon zest and grilled-pineapple character pairs naturally with grapefruit soda.
Tequila Sour — the silky texture and vanilla notes create a rich, rounded template for citrus and egg white.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat does Corzo Reposado taste like? Corzo Reposado leads with cooked agave sweetness layered with honey, vanilla, and dark fruit, then transitions to gentle oak spice and a hint of toasted almond. The triple distillation gives it a notably smooth, clean profile that is lighter on barrel influence than many reposados.How does Corzo Reposado compare to Herradura Reposado? Herradura Reposado is aged significantly longer (up to 11 months) and carries heavier oak and butterscotch notes, while Corzo’s double-mellowed, triple-distilled process produces a lighter, more agave-forward character with less barrel weight. Both are 100% blue agave highland tequilas, but the production philosophies diverge sharply.Is Corzo Reposado good for sipping neat? Yes — the 40% ABV and triple-distilled smoothness make it approachable neat, with enough complexity from the oak aging and honey-vanilla layers to keep experienced sippers engaged.Where is Corzo Reposado made? Corzo Reposado is produced at NOM 1487, operated by Tequila Cazadores De Arandas (a Bacardi facility), in the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco, Mexico — one of the two principal tequila-producing regions.What foods pair well with Corzo Reposado? Grilled shrimp with mango salsa benefits from the tequila’s tropical fruit notes. Carnitas tacos mirror the honey sweetness. Aged manchego cheese echoes the vanilla and oak tones. Dark chocolate with sea salt complements the almond and coconut undertones. Ceviche with citrus brightens the agave character.What sizes does Corzo Reposado come in? The standard widely available size is the 750ml bottle.Is Corzo Reposado worth the price? Corzo Reposado positions as a premium reposado, and the 94-point Wine Enthusiast rating alongside its unique triple-distillation process lend credibility to that positioning. For drinkers who value production innovation and a smoother, more refined profile over heavy barrel character, it delivers strong value within the premium tier.Why Corzo Reposado?The double-mellowed, triple-distilled method is Corzo Reposado’s defining differentiator — a production step so uncommon that it has no direct equivalent among widely distributed tequila brands. That process earned the expression a 94-point rating from Wine Enthusiast and Gold Medal recognition at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, validating the approach with two of the spirits industry’s most recognized benchmarks. The result is a reposado that threads the needle between the raw vibrancy of a blanco and the deeper oak integration of an añejo, making it one of the more versatile 100% agave tequilas in its price range.
