El Jimador was created to honor the jimadores, the skilled harvesters who shape tequila long before the spirit ever sees a bottle. Their work is patient, precise, and rooted in tradition. Opening this Reposado feels like stepping onto a sunlit field in Jalisco: baked earth, ripe agave, and the warmth of an afternoon that lingers long after the work is done.

Brand: El Jimador | Category: Reposado Tequila | ABV: 38% | Origin: Jalisco, Mexico | Vol: 750ml

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, light spice, and a hint of citrus, like warm agave syrup cooling beside freshly shaved wood.

Finish: Medium with a soft sweetness, gentle pepper, and warm oak fading cleanly.

Production Details:
After slow cooking the agave in traditional ovens, El Jimador ferments naturally and distills to capture a pure, agave-forward character. The Reposado rests in American oak barrels for two months, just long enough to add warmth, vanilla, and soft spice while keeping the agave at the forefront. It’s a classic Jalisco style, honest, bright, and crafted for everyday enjoyment.

Laid-back nights, summer gatherings, or moments when you want a tequila that’s smooth enough to sip but bold enough to elevate cocktails. Ideal for Margarita lovers who appreciate a touch of oak.

Interesting Fact:
El Jimador takes its name from the expert farmers who harvest agave by hand, the same teams who supply the distillery today. Their craftsmanship shapes the flavor from the ground up.
