Paladar Tequila Reposado, Sauternes cask finish
This Reposado expression is first aged in oak, then finished in Sauternes wine casks. These barrels—previously home to one of France’s most revered sweet wines—introduce soft layers of honeyed fruit, stone fruit, and gentle spice. The sweetness remains subtle and integrated, adding roundness and elegance while allowing agave to remain the focal point. Each bottle is finished by hand and dipped in the volcanic soil of our agave fields.
About Sauternes Casks
Sauternes is a renowned sweet wine from Bordeaux, produced from grapes affected by noble rot, which concentrates sugars and aromatics. When used for finishing tequila, Sauternes casks lend delicate notes of honey, apricot, and warm spice, enhancing texture and depth without overwhelming the spirit.

Paladar Tequila is from the last independent founding families of Tequila, the Orendain family who are the founders of Arette Tequila. An authentically modern product - created by five generations of distilling, by master distiller, Eduardo Orendain Jr.. Modernised by sustainability, in productions and sourcing from the valley of Jalisco, Tequila, Mexico. The Tequilas are preservative-free, with zero use of colour additives, and zero use of pesticides or fertilisers in the agave fields, and the agave is grown organically. Each bottle is hand-dipped in the volcanic soil of their agave fields. These are premium Tequilas that will stand apart from the large amount of celebrity and mass-produced Tequilas on the market. Each Tequila comes from a minimum 7-year Blue Weber agave from their own fields, which slow cooks in brick ovens and open-air pine-box ferments in wild and proprietary yeast. Each batch of Paladar is twice distilled in a copper and stainless steel pot blend. They celebrate this product of the earth with each bottle hand-dipped in the volcanic soil of our agave fields.
Additive-free and organic in production
