La Gritona Reposado is the rare tequila that bridges the gap between blanco brightness and reposado refinement, rested just long enough in used American whiskey barrels to round out the spirit without muting its wild agave soul.


Produced at NOM 1533, Vinos y Licores Azteca in Valle de Guadalupe, Jalisco, this reposado spends 8 months in previously used whiskey barrels, a deliberate choice that imparts a subtle warmth while preserving the vivid, herb-forward character that defines great highland tequila. The result is a spirit crafted with a light hand and a clear point of view.


  • Nose: Fresh agave, bright citrus, and green herbs with a whisper of vanilla from the barrel
  • Palate: Lively agave-forward flavors, soft herbaceous notes, and a gently mellowed texture that feels open and inviting
  • Finish: Clean and medium-length with lingering sweetness and a soft oak warmth

La Gritona Reposado shines served neat or on the rocks, and its balance of brightness and body makes it a natural fit for a classic Paloma or a refined Tommy's Margarita.


Best enjoyed neat or over a single large ice cube to let the agave character breathe. La Gritona Reposado Tequila is crafted from blue agave in Valle de Guadalupe, Jalisco, and is a standout choice for anyone who loves the energy of a blanco with just a touch of barrel polish.

Tasting Notes

La Gritona is made by Melly Barajas and an all-women team at her small distillery in Valle de Guadalupe, in the Los Altos region of Jalisco. Melly uses only mature highland agave, about 8 to 10 years old, grown in iron-rich red soil and loaded into the ovens within a day of harvest. The piñas are steam cooked for 24 hours in thick-walled earthen ovens, crushed with a steel mill, fermented in open steel vats and distilled twice. The tequila then rests six months in American oak barrels used over and over, so the wood stays quiet and the agave stays green and crisp. The bottles are blown from 100% recycled glass in Mexico City.

Valle de Guadalupe is a small town in the Altos Sur region of the Jalisco Highlands, northeast of Tepatitlán. Agave here grows slowly in iron-rich red soil, with warm days and cool highland nights that build sugar in the piñas. Los Altos is one of the two main tequila growing regions, and its agave is known for bright, sweet, fruity and herbal character.
