The Story
Humano — “by Artisanal Hands,” as the label puts it — builds its tequilas on highlands Blue Weber agave and traditional reposado aging. For the Texas Edition, the distillery sent its reposado north of the border in spirit: instead of anonymous ex-bourbon casks, this edition rests for its full six months in barrels from Still Austin Whiskey Co., the Austin, Texas grain-to-glass distillery known for its Texas bourbon. The barrels return the favour with vanilla, caramel and warm baking spice woven through the agave. Browse more barrel-rested expressions in our reposado tequila collection.
Tasting Notes
The Texas Edition pours a warm golden amber. Cooked agave leads, followed by the bourbon barrel's signature trio of vanilla, caramel and toasted oak, with a little cinnamon and baking spice from the Still Austin casks. The finish is smooth and rounded, the oak present but never heavy — a reposado that shows exactly what a well-chosen barrel can add to highlands agave, and a distinctive addition to any shelf of tequila.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat or over a single large cube to let the barrel character open up. It also makes a superb Reposado Old Fashioned — two ounces of the Texas Edition, a bar spoon of agave syrup and two dashes of aromatic bitters — or a richer-than-usual Ranch Water with soda and lime. If longer aging is your preference, explore our anejo tequila range next.
