Código 1530 Reposado Tequila
Short History
Crafted in the heart of Amatitán, Jalisco, Código 1530 was originally developed as a private recipe shared only among Mexican families and close friends for generations before becoming publicly available. The name “1530” honors the year the town of Amatitán received its official charter.
Código 1530 Reposado represents a modern interpretation of traditional tequila-making, combining time-honored production methods with innovative barrel aging. Rested for six months in French White Oak Napa Valley Cabernet wine barrels, this reposado delivers exceptional depth while preserving the vibrant character of Blue Weber agave.
