Mejor Tequila Reposado 750ml (cannot ship)

Another new direct buy spirit for K&L! Don't be fooled like I was by Mejor's description as "modern luxury tequila" because Mejor is not just another lifestyle product aimed solely at the hip-hop, club-going culture. The Penilla family has been harvesting their own agave for generations and their understanding of the production process is unparalleled. Albert Penilla can tell you every fact and detail about working the soil as well as the chemical process of distillation. These people understand tequila. In the past, the Penillas sold off their agave to Patron, but after Don Penilla came to the United States and worked his way up in the agriculture business, he was finally able to invest in creating his own brand. He still runs his strawberry business in Watsonville and his sons have set up roots locally in the San Jose area, but they always find time to head back to Jalisco and work the land. I love their repoado and I love that we buy the Mejor products straight from the Penillas and they drop it off on their lunch break. Smooth, full-bodied, and loaded with pure agave flavor, the Mejor reposado is a superb deal that blows away pricer options like Don Julio or Patron. Support your local producers and experience why we are so excited to be carrying these tequilas. -David Driscoll, Spirits Buyer
