Tres Agaves Tequila Reposado

Tres Agaves is an interesting brand. In the world of high end spirits and sipping tequila, Tres Agaves comes straight out and says that it's designed to make world class margaritas. I've sipped both the blanco and añejo and I can say that I enjoy them neat as well...particularly at the budget price. It's a low cost brand from Tequila Arette (NOM 1109) that has caught on well and is widely distributed in the US as well. So if it sounds like something that you might like, you should have no trouble finding it.


Price: $25/bottle

Aroma: A tad dry. Light agave nose, but plenty of oak as well.

Initial Taste: A really nice sweetness up front. Sweet cooked agave and vanilla notes.

Body: Medium to thin body. The oak comes through a bit more, but it has a good balance. A tiny vegetal note sneaks in as well.

Finish: The oak notes comes forward quite a bit. The agave kick is there as well with just a hint of bitter chocolate. A nice finish.


Sip it, mix it, do whatever. This is a darn good bottle for $25. It has the balance and flavors to sip and the price to mix. Arette made a really nice and approachable tequila here and I'll be keeping one in my bar for sure.
