Adictivo Doble Reposado Tequila
Adictivo Doble Reposado Tequila is a 750mL reposado bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), made from 100% blue Weber agave in El Arenal, in the Los Valles lowlands of Jalisco, Mexico. "Doble" is the method: the tequila is double-rested for a total of eight months in French oak — four months in a first French oak cask, then moved to a second, fresh French oak cask for four more — so the spirit meets new oak twice on its way to the bottle, in the house style of founder and master distiller Gildardo Partida. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

Doble Means Double-Rested: Two French Oak Casks, Eight Months
Most reposados meet one barrel; this one meets two. The first French oak cask gives the young tequila its straw-gold colour and first layer of vanilla and caramel; racking it into a fresh cask at four months restarts the extraction, deepening the oak, honey and butterscotch well past what eight months in a single barrel would give — specialist coverage of the expression describes a reposado with an almost anejo-like richness and a finish that runs long for the category.

Tasting Notes
Per the brand: a bright straw reposado with golden sparkles, a soft and prolonged flavour, and aromas of wood and cooked agave. Specialist tasters add a nose of cooked agave, oak, caramel, honey and vanilla, a palate of cooked agave, honey and butterscotch with strong oak, and a long, mildly sweet finish.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat to catch the second cask's work, or use it in a reposado Margarita when you want the oak to show through the lime. More reposados are in our tequila collection.
