Excellia Tequila Reposado

San Francisco World Spirits Competition Double Gold Medals Reposado Category

Excellia Tequila is the perfect blend of Mexican and French culture: an exceptional, handmade tequila is made from 8-12 year old blue agaves in Los Altos, Mexico.

In addition to the distinct agave aroma, notes of lavender and honey can be found.

After distillation, it is stored separately in old Grand Cru Sauternes wine barrels and in cognac barrels.

While the Blanco is only aged in the barrel for a few weeks, the Reposado is aged for 8 months and the Anejo for 16 months.

All blue agaves for Excellia are grown in the Tapatio company’s own fields.

Tequila Excellia is still produced using a traditional method with the Tahona (a rotating stone wheel that crushes the agave hearts in a hollow).

The distillery Destilería Altena: Tequila Excellia is for those who seek the highest quality; the commitment is to continue the characteristics that have existed since 1937.
