Arette Tequila Reposado is a true insider’s favorite, offering a level of heritage and purity that is rare to find. Crafted by the Orendain family—one of the four founding families of the tequila industry—at their historic 125-year-old distillery, this spirit is aged for six months in American white oak to achieve a perfect balance. Because it is estate-grown in the volcanic soil of the tequila lowlands, it boasts a savory, peppery character that stands out from sweeter highland tequilas. This 1L bottle is widely considered the ultimate "best-kept secret" for those who want an additive-free, professional-grade reposado that excels whether sipped neat or mixed into a world-class cocktail.
