The 2024 Las Raíces vintage is a soulful tribute to the Camarena family’s deep ancestral roots in the Arandas highlands. Harvested from a unique estate where a small forest of ash and oak trees creates a rich natural ecosystem, this reposado captures a rare depth of flavor from overripe agaves grown in iron rich red clay. By resting the spirit for exactly eight weeks and eight days in seasoned barrels, the makers ensure that the delicate notes of agave remain front and center while gaining a sophisticated, creamy texture. It is a wonderfully complex find that offers a taste of the land’s history in every glass.
