Oaxacan Espadín, Given Time in Oak
Insolente's espadín is known for its earthy-citrus-smoke balance — roasted agave, zesty citrus, a touch of herbs — and the reposado treatment lays oak softness over that frame. Expect the classic espadín smoke to linger, with rounder edges and a richer texture than the unaged expression.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Roasted agave, zesty citrus, delicate herbs over soft oak. Palate: Earthy sweetness and spice, smoke woven through caramel tones. Finish: Long and smoky with lingering citrus.
How to Enjoy
Sip neat from a copita to taste the oak-agave interplay, or use it to upgrade any smoky cocktail — an Oaxaca Old Fashioned with a reposado base is superb.
