Komos Reposado Rosa Tequila is a unique and luxurious tequila that achieves its distinctive character and beautiful pink hue through a special aging process. It begins as a Blanco tequila made from 100% Blue Weber agave, hand-harvested from the highlands and lowlands of Jalisco. The piñas are roasted in traditional stone ovens, naturally fermented, and double-distilled in copper pot stills. This Blanco is then rested for two months in the finest French oak red wine barrels. The contact with the red grape skins imparts the tequila's natural pink color and contributes to its unique flavor profile. As a final touch, the tequila undergoes gentle aeration, a winemaking technique, to soften the mouthfeel and add richness. It is bottled in a handmade, opaque pink ceramic bottle designed to be upcycled.

We rest our impeccable Blanco Tequila in the finest French oak red wine barrels for two months to create a Reposado unlike any other. This Reposado Rosa has a color reminiscent of great French Rosé, with rich flavors and a creamy mouthfeel imparted by its time spent in these special barrels. Big, round and plush on the palate, the fresh agave flavors are met with vanilla, butterscotch, and a dry dark chocolate note. Blackberries, plums, and dark cherries leap out of the glass. The finish is long, rich, and very smooth, leaving the impression of chocolate covered strawberries behind it.
