Description

Founded in 1967 in Jalisco, Mexico, OLMECA is a high-percentage agave mix of tequila. Aged for 6 months in American white oak 200L ex-bourbon barrels for a richer and smoother taste, even though the legal requirement for aging Reposados is only 2 months. Best to shoot with Brown sugar and Orange Slices.
