Cierto Private Collection Reposado Tequila
Cierto Private Collection Reposado Tequila is reposado as a luxury object: a 40% ABV (80 proof), 750mL tequila rested 11 months in French Limousin oak casks and finished with aged tequilas from the Fonseca family's private library — "some of the oldest and rarest tequilas in existence." Made by master distillers Enrique Fonseca and Sergio Mendoza at the La Tequileña distillery (NOM 1146) in Tequila, Jalisco, from estate-grown highland agave, double copper-pot distilled and additive-free. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

The Library Reposado
Cierto bills itself the most-awarded tequila in history — over 800 international accolades — and the Private Collection is its crown jewel: four expressions elevated by blending in aged tequilas from the Fonseca family's own private library. The reposado rests 11 months in French Limousin oak, built on estate highland agave from the Atotonilco region, low-pressure autoclave cooking, and double copper-pot distillation at La Tequileña (NOM 1146). The result is a reposado with the poise of an añejo — oak-kissed but unmistakably agave. Browse the full Cierto tequila range and our premium tequila collection.
Tasting Notes
Elegant and composed: French oak and vanilla settle over cooked agave and citrus, with a long, silky finish of caramel and baking spice — the Limousin oak fully integrated, never dominant.
How to Enjoy
Neat in a copita to catch the full interplay of oak and agave. It also elevates a premium margarita or a tequila Old Fashioned without losing its character.
