LIMITED EDITION
El Tesoro® Single Barrel Reposado Tequila
Each cask of our Single Barrel Reposado is influenced by the unique combination of the season in which the agave is harvested and the cellar location where the tequila ages. A select number of barrels are handpicked by Carlos and Jenny Camarena at peak maturity to become this special bottling from a single cask.
“The only wrong way to drink El Tesoro® is to drink it alone.”
– Carlos C. Camarena
