Oro Azul Reposado Tequila

Double distilled and 100% blue agave, Oro Azul Reposado is carefully rested for over six months. Our special resting process delivers a richer, cleaner and deeper tequila.

Oro Azul Reposado Tequila has a deep old gold color with pickling spice and sweet, creamy nougat aromas. A round entry leads to a dryish medium-bodied palate with creamy caramel, faint brown spices and ripe tropical citrus fruits. Finishes in a very lengthy, fruity manner, with nutty toffee and spice notes. Well rounded, balanced and delicious.

Tequila Oro Azul Reposado, NOM 1079. I received this tequila as a thoughtful birthday gift from my nephew a few months ago. Beautiful straw yellow color with golden hues. Agave/apple scents are followed by wood smoke, light caramel, & slight alcohol. The complex spicy taste is sweet agave nectar with a smoky caramel aftertaste. This medium bodied spirit finishes with a fairly long, slightly numbing effect on the tongue, fading away into a wonderful bouquet of smoky sweetness. Oro Azul Reposado is quite smooth even with a very slight taste of alcohol which, BTW, does not in anyway detract from the overall tasting experience. This is a reasonably priced, premium tequila worthy of the most discriminating palate & a pure pleasure to sip after dinner like a cognac. I can only imagine, at this time, what the anejo must taste like.

Tasted out of high ball glass. Oro Azul Reposado picks up exactly where its blanco left off and adds a hint of wood and caramel. A very decent reposado. Very similar to my review of its blanco. I would say this is a good reposado for new tequila/reposado drinkers.

Aroma: A very creamy, vanilla, pear like aroma with hints of wood and smoke.
Initial Taste:I thin mouth tequila. Starting off with a pear like fruity taste.
Body: Followed by strong agave presence with hints of fruit, spice, and wood. More so the wood than the fruit, but not overbearing wood taste. Very complimentary to the agave.
Finish: A very soft pleasant fruity, spicy finish of medium duration and no alcohol burn.
