Review: Tequila Chamucos Reposado

by Jeff Ellingson

Tequila Chamucos Reposado was first launched in 1994.  In 2009 they added a Blanco, and in 2010 an Anejo expression.  They have continued to build the line with the launch of Chamucos Extra Anejo, and the 110 proof Diablo Blanco.  Chamucos are dark shadowy creatures who appear in dreams and only visit at night.  Chamucos Reposado is made from organic agave with a brix content from 27-30, grown in the Highland region of Los Altos.  The agave is slow cooked for 30 hours in masonry brick ovens and then cooled for 24 hours before the juice is extracted.  A natural fermentation follows with proprietary yeast in open vat tanks.  The spirit is double distilled in a specially designed stainless steel alambique still.  A micro filtration, polishing filtration, oxygenation, and cold filtration follows.  The tequila rests in virgin American white oak medium toast barrels, and a small percentage of American Oak Char #2 for 6-7 months.  They do not use previously used whiskey barrels.  It pours to a golden straw color.  The aroma is vanilla, caramel, spearmint, agave, orange, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Additional time in the glass brings out notes of butterscotch.  The sweet vanilla, coconut, caramel, and agave entry is joined by butterscotch, juicy orange, and baking spice building to a toasted coconut and tangerine peak.  It fades with oak and a sprinkle of pepper.  The finish is semi-dry with orange peel, coconut, and spearmint taste.  Tequila Chamucos Reposado is a sweet fresh tasting tequila with a unique and tasty flavor profile.
