Crafted with Highland Craftsmanship
Don Julio Reposado is produced at La Primavera Distillery in Jalisco’s Los Altos region, where 100% Weber Blue Agave is hand-harvested at peak ripeness. The agave piñas are slow-roasted for 72 hours in traditional masonry ovens, then crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve their vibrant character. Double-distilled in small-batch copper pot stills, the tequila is aged for eight months in American white oak barrels, previously used for bourbon, to impart its signature oak, vanilla, and caramel notes while retaining the agave’s purity. This artisanal process, as highlighted by The Spirits Business, creates a “balanced, sophisticated reposado” that resonates with Nairobi’s discerning drinkers, blending tradition with modern elegance.
