Look what has finally landed!
Late last year, we were fortunate enough to be romanced with the prospect of KWM's first exclusive single barrel of Tequila. It came about rather quickly and unexpectedly, during a meeting with the great people from Tromba (named for the rainstorms that bring life to Los Altos). The conversation went a little something like this: "Why don't we send a couple of you down to Guadalajara to pick a barrel?" ... "Oh, yeah, for sure. Hahaha." ... "How soon can you be ready?" ... "Ummm...wait, what?" A couple weeks later, Curt and Harmony were on a plane to Mexico.
While the two of them may have had very yin and yang experiences while in Jalisco (come ask us about it sometime!), they were 100% on the same page when it came to selecting a cask for the shop. After tasting through a great range of Tequila drawn from barrels resting in the Tromba warehouses, one particular cask stood taller than the others: Cask RO-161. This was tasted in cask at eight and a half months of age, but slept a wee bit longer in wood before bottling. It's still a Reposado but was tiptoeing towards being an Anejo. That extra time in wood only made this one better.
Our first Tequila, but definitely not our last.
Bottled overproof for us at 48% abv.

This Reposado Tequila is made from 100% estate-grown blue agave, just like all of the Arrette line.
Arette is the product of 2 brothers of the famous tequila distilling family Orendain. Eduardo and Jamie are part of the 6th generation of the family and operate the El Llano distillery in the heart of the city of Tequila. Arette is the name of a horse that brought home 2 gold medals in the 1948 Olympics. Aromas of moderate oaky vanilla, spice and mildly floral. Lightly sweet agave with hints of more spice and earth along with hints of charred oak.

About The Producer
"Many great social and technological advances took place during revolutionary Mexico. Don Delfino Gonzalez found this environment as the perfect opportunity to develop his passion for making tequila. It was this passion, that led Don Delfino to bring great progress to the tequila industry without losing the authenticity and value of a real tequila.
We have overcome great challenges along the way, but we've maintained a leading position in the tequila industry for more than 130 years. Just like the world around us, we continue to evolve while preserving the authenticity of our original home tequila since 1886.
Casa San Matías is like one big family. Every person is a unique individual with years of accumulated experiences and valuable background. So when you sit down to taste one of our products, you don't taste factory made but rather a family made tequila with an extraordinary history."
