This newly reformulated version of an up-and-coming player in the lowlands of Tequila now comes from the acclaimed Las Rocas distillery in Amatitlán, ranked among the top ten in Mexico. Las Rocas has been making waves for its focus on quality, and Casa Azul is their flagship single-estate, certified organic agave tequila. The brand in the blue bottle definitely isn’t that other “Azul” tequila—there are so many. Here it’s just three ingredients, with brick-oven roasting, slow steam cooking, and natural fermentation before careful distillation. The reposado spends just 4-6 months in used ex-bourbon allowing just a subtle mellowing and a kiss of oak. No cloying sweetness and like wise no hard edges, this simple well made Repo with nothing to hide.
