Desnuda Organic Reposado Tequila
Desnuda Organic Reposado Tequila — Bourbon-Barrel Rested and Beautifully Balanced
Desnuda Organic Reposado Tequila takes the brand's naked, additive-free blanco and gives it time in bourbon barrels, where it picks up honey, vanilla, and warm spice while keeping the bright agave soul that defines Desnuda. Like every Desnuda expression, it starts as 100% Blue Weber agave from the red clay soil of Jalisco — hand-harvested, open-air fermented, and double distilled with no sweeteners, no additives, no artificial colors, and zero sugar.
Crafted under Master Distiller Santos Ochoa and bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) in Desnuda's signature green-tinted, textured glass bottle with a natural wood cap, the reposado earned Silver at the 2026 Agavos Awards and Double Platinum at the ASCOT Awards for taste, bottle design, and marketing.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Sweet pineapple, lime zest, cooked agave, and vanilla, developing into rose, honeycomb, and soft, welcoming aromas.
- Palate: Honeyed agave with caramel, cinnamon, cocoa, warm oak, and a gentle black-pepper spice — bright tropical undertones keep it lively.
- Finish: Long and warming, with lingering honey, vanilla, and oak spice.

How to Enjoy
A natural neat or rocks sipper — the reposado sweet spot where barrel and agave meet. It upgrades any blanco cocktail with extra depth: try it in a Reposado Old Fashioned, a richer Margarita, or simply over one large cube with a twist of orange. Pair with carnitas tacos, grilled pineapple, or dark chocolate.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "reposado" mean?
"Rested" in Spanish — the tequila has been aged in oak barrels long enough to take on color and flavor from the wood, but briefly enough to keep its agave character front and center.
What kind of barrels does Desnuda use for the reposado?
Bourbon barrels, which lend honey, vanilla, and warm spice notes. The brand does not publish a specific resting duration.
Is it good for cocktails?
Yes — reposado is the cocktail lover's tequila, adding barrel depth to Margaritas and Old Fashioneds while staying smooth enough for sipping neat.
