Co-crafted by Jenny Camarena, the first female Master Distiller in La Alteña's storied history, this reposado marks an exciting chapter in El Tesoro's Mundial Collection. Crushed under a traditional two-ton stone wheel and distilled directly to proof with no added water, the spirit rests for months in casks that previously held Basil Hayden Toast bourbon. This unique toasted cooperage wraps the slow-roasted highland agave in cozy notes of warm vanilla custard, buttery toffee, and lightly toasted grains. It pours with a creamy, velvety texture that feels deeply comforting, making it a wonderful pour to savor slowly and share with good friends.
