Atanasio Reposado Tequila
(750ml)

About the Producer:

In remote El Medineño, Jalisco, members of the Landeros family have been growing agave as campesinos for over one hundred years. A measure of that heritage and commitment takes form in the life of Tío Atanasio; born in 1897, Tío Atanasio grew up in the agave fields and began distilling his own spirits in his twenties. His famous adage among the family was, “one glass of tequila a day never hurt anybody,” and, indeed, his words proved wisdom—Tío Atanasio lived to be 103, embodying his name (which means “immortal” in Greek).

In 2011, Familia Landeros established their own fabrica, bringing their family’s distillation out of the shadows and into local commercial availability. 

About the Tequila:

Because we love the purest tequila, this reposado spends only three months in white oak barrels. This allows the wood to never forget the pureness that precedes it. You will find the perfect mix of the origins and the first notes of maturation.
