Quick Facts: ABV: 40% (80 Proof)  |  Origin: Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico  |  Style: Reposado  |  Distillery: Casa Tequilera de Arandas (NOM 1466)
Production & Heritage
Casa Tequilera de Arandas operates under NOM 1466 in the Highlands (Los Altos) of Jalisco, a sub-region prized for its red, iron-rich soils that yield sweeter, more fruit-forward Blue Weber agave. The Score Reposado begins with mature, seven-year-old agave plants that are double distilled in traditional pot stills before resting in a combination of American and French oak barrels. The distillery employs a gravity-assisted production method designed to reduce its carbon footprint — an uncommon commitment in tequila manufacturing that minimizes mechanical energy use throughout the process.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Roasted agave leads the nose, followed by waves of caramel and vanilla. A backbone of oak spice rounds out the aromatics, signaling the dual-barrel influence.
Taste: The entry is smooth and honeyed, developing into dried fruit and butterscotch across the mid-palate. Toasted oak emerges alongside subtle peppery undertones, while the French oak contribution adds a gentle tannic structure that separates this reposado from single-barrel expressions.
Finish: Warm and rounded with a medium-length close that balances lingering oak spice against persistent agave sweetness. A gentle heat fades gracefully, leaving a slightly sweet, woody echo.
How to Drink Score Reposado
Sipping neat or with a single large ice cube is the most direct way to experience the dual-oak character and roasted agave core. For cocktails, the honey-and-oak profile slots naturally into several classics:
Oaxaca Old Fashioned — the butterscotch richness pairs beautifully with mole bitters and agave syrup.
Reposado Paloma — the vanilla sweetness complements grapefruit soda without being overwhelmed.
Tequila Manhattan — the French oak tannins give it enough weight to stand up to sweet vermouth.

Why Score Reposado?
The most immediate differentiator is the dual-oak aging program — resting in both American and French oak barrels adds a layer of tannic complexity uncommon at this price tier. The gravity-assisted, low-carbon production process reflects a growing but still rare sustainability focus within the tequila industry. The hand-painted porcelain bottle, featuring Mexican World Cup–themed artwork, makes this a genuinely limited collectible rather than a standard label variation. For anyone seeking a Highland reposado that delivers smooth agave character with distinctive packaging and an environmentally conscious backstory, Score Reposado Mexico Limited Edition stands on its own merits.
