Avión Reposado Tequila
Overview
Avión Reposado is aged for six months in small American white oak barrels, longer than the typical reposado treatment and in smaller casks that put the spirit in closer contact with the wood throughout. The result is a reposado with more depth and oak integration than most at this price: vanilla, caramel, and warm spice layered cleanly over the natural sweetness of Jalisco Highlands agave.
Clean, smooth, and well-balanced from start to finish. Avión built its name on slow filtration and quality Highland agave, and the Reposado is a straightforward example of what that philosophy delivers. Versatile enough to mix well, refined enough to sip neat. A solid bottle that earns its price without needing much explaining.
The Distillery
Produced in the Jalisco Highlands, where agave grown at altitude brings natural sweetness and fruity character to the base spirit. Avión was founded in 2010 by Ken Austin and is now part of the Pernod Ricard portfolio, with production remaining consistent in the Highlands throughout.
The brand's slow filtration process is a key part of what gives the range its clean, polished character. Combined with the small barrel aging approach used across the aged expressions, it adds up to a tequila that's noticeably smoother than a lot of what sits next to it on the shelf.
Why We Recommend It
At Bourbon Brothers, we recommend Avión Reposado for customers who want:
- A smooth, well-aged reposado with more oak influence than the standard 2-month expressions
- Six months in small barrels for a richer vanilla and caramel profile
- Highland agave sweetness that holds through the barrel aging
- A versatile, reliable bottle that works across sipping and cocktail serves
It's a good step up for anyone who's been drinking basic commercial reposados and wants to understand what proper barrel aging actually adds to a tequila. The small barrel approach makes that difference easy to taste.
Production & Craftsmanship
| Agave | 100% Blue Weber Agave |
| Cooking | Traditional brick ovens (hornos) |
| Extraction | Roller mill |
| Fermentation | Controlled fermentation |
| Distillation | Double distilled |
| Filtration | Slow filtration process |
| Additives | Produced to commercial standards |
| Aging | 6 months in small American white oak barrels |
Six months in small barrels gives the Reposado noticeably more oak influence than most expressions in the category. The smaller barrel size increases wood-to-spirit contact, which means the vanilla and caramel character develops faster and more evenly throughout the liquid. It's a smart production choice that delivers real results in the glass.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Fresh agave, vanilla, light caramel, and a soft citrus note from the Highland-grown agave. Warm and clean with clear oak influence.
Palate
Smooth and balanced. Sweet agave, vanilla, butterscotch, and a gentle warm spice. The small barrel character comes through in a rounded, well-integrated oak presence.
Finish
Medium-length, clean, and slightly sweet. Vanilla and light spice fade evenly without any harsh edges. Easy to keep coming back to.
What Makes This Tequila Special
How to Enjoy
Works brilliantly in a Reposado Margarita or Tequila Old Fashioned. Smooth enough to sip neat or over a single ice cube without any fuss. If you're after a reposado that covers all bases without making you choose between cocktails and sipping, Avión Reposado fits the brief well. Hard to pour a bad drink with this one.
