Deleon Reposado Tequila
Deleon Reposado Tequila is a 750mL reposado bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), made from 100% highland blue Weber agave sourced from the Los Altos region of Jalisco, Mexico. The tequila is gently aged in American oak, then finished in French oak wine casks — a French-winemaking influence the house applies across its aged range — before the master distiller's cut keeps only the heart of the spirit, the Corazon. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

Highland Agave, Finished Like a Wine
DeLeon was launched in 2009 and brought into the Diageo portfolio in 2014, built on a single idea: apply French winemaking craft to highland tequila. The Reposado rests in bold American oak and is finished in delicate French oak wine casks, marrying vanilla and dried fruit from the wood against the sweetness of Los Altos agave.
