Cazcanes No. 7 Reposado Tequila

Cazcanes No. 7 Reposado Tequila is a 40% ABV (80 proof) reposado made from 100% organic Blue Weber agave and rested in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels for up to 11 months. The "No. 7" is not the age — it is the brand's 7th test recipe, developed by founders from a 300-year-old indigenous recipe and named in a nod to Chanel No. 5. Distilled at NOM 1614 in Amatitán, Jalisco, it comes in a 750mL bottle. Order reposado tequilas online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

The Seventh Recipe

Cazcanes honors the Cazcanes Indians — the last indigenous people of Mexico conquered by the Spanish — and its recipe traces to a 300-year-old indigenous formula found at a jungle still. The founders numbered their test batches; the 9th became the blanco, the 7th became this reposado. The water starts as rain on the San Pedro de los Landeros mountains, travels through volcanic minerals, and emerges at the Navichi springs — and the agave is 100% organic, wild-yeast fermented, and double-distilled in alembic stills. Up to 11 months in ex-bourbon barrels gives it a honey-gold color and a butterscotch-sweet profile. Explore the Cazcanes collection or more reposado tequilas.

Tasting Notes

Sweet and buttery. The official notes: honey-gold color; a nose of floral notes with sweet agave, grapefruit, vanilla, and coconut (alt blurb: butterscotch, vanilla, shortbread cookie, plantain, coconut); a clean, sweet palate of agave, grapefruit, caramel vanilla, and coconut; and an extremely smooth, sweet, long-lasting, buttery finish.

How to Enjoy

Sip neat to catch the butterscotch and coconut the oak adds — this is a reposado built for the glass, not the blender. It also makes a remarkable reposado Old Fashioned or a rich, sweet margarita. Serve at room temperature.
