A Central-Jalisco Reposado
Calera Real comes from Tlajomulco de Zúñiga, in the central Jalisco country south of Guadalajara — a different agave landscape from the highlands of Los Altos or the valley floor around Tequila town, and one fewer US drinkers know by name. At Destiladora Los Magos (NOM 1431), the Weber blue agave is cooked in high-pressure autoclaves, shredded by roller mill, fermented in stainless steel and distilled twice in stainless pot stills — a modern, efficient process that keeps the agave flavour direct — before the spirit rests in oak long enough to pick up the reposado category's pale gold and softness. Browse the brand on the Calera Real vendor page.
Tasting Notes
Retail descriptions of this reposado lead with light herbs and honey over pronounced agave and wood on the nose, a sweet and lingering palate, and a warm, spicy finish — the agave still in charge, the oak in support.
How to Enjoy
Pour it neat or over a large cube to keep the agave-and-oak balance in view, or use it where a reposado belongs: a Margarita with body, or a Paloma with depth. More rested tequilas are in our tequila collection.
