This Reposado Is DIFFERENT… | Paladar Tequila Review

Paladar Tequila Reposado is one of the most interesting additive-free tequilas I’ve tasted lately.

In this review, I break down the production process, flavor profile, fermentation methods, aging, and why Paladar Reposado feels different from a lot of reposados on the market today. From open-air pine fermenters and wild yeast fermentation to volcanic soil-dipped bottles and balanced ex-bourbon barrel aging, this tequila has a ton of character. I also recently interviewed Paladar co-founder Pete Nevenglosky, and after learning more about the philosophy behind the brand, this tequila makes even more sense in the glass.
