Overview
Reposado Tequila | Padre Azul 100% Blue Weber Agave  ·  Amatitán, Tequila Valley (El Valle), Jalisco  ·  38% ABV
THE WORLD'S HIGHEST RATED TEQUILA

Padre Azul Reposado takes the brand's Amatitán Valley blanco and rests it for at least 8 months in ex-bourbon American oak barrels. That's a decent stretch for a reposado, so the barrel has a proper say, but the agave still comes through.

Expect vanilla, toasted coconut and pecans up front, then grilled pineapple, cooked agave and toasty oak. Smooth and creamy, with a long, slightly peppery finish. Easy to sip and hard not to go back for another.

Slow cooking and natural fermentation establish the agave character before barrel ageing adds vanilla, coconut and a gently toasted edge. The result is a smooth, oak-influenced reposado with agave still at its heart.

Distillery Information

Padre Azul is made at the Tres Mujeres distillery (NOM 1466) in Amatitán. Tres Mujeres produces a few brands, but Padre Azul runs its own fermentation tanks and stills and uses its own agave, grown under long-term contracts with neighbouring farmers.

It's one of the few tequilas made by a female master distiller, and it's the only tequila she makes. You'll know the bottle when you see it, with its leather jacket wrap and skull stopper.

How to enjoy

Best neat or over a big cube of ice. It also makes a cracking Reposado Margarita or Paloma, and works a treat in a Tequila Old Fashioned. No need to overthink it.

Why we curate it

At Tequila Brothers, we recommend Padre Azul Reposado for customers who want:

  • A smooth, creamy reposado that's easy to sip neat
  • A longer rest in ex-bourbon barrels for more vanilla and oak
  • Traditional slow cooking and natural fermentation
  • A bottle that looks the part on the shelf

If you're a whiskey drinker curious about tequila, this is a good one to start with. Those ex-bourbon barrels bring plenty of familiar vanilla and oak, with sweet agave and pineapple sitting right alongside.
