Cutwater Tequila Reposado is crafted in Tequila, Mexico, using 100% blue agave that is slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens and open-fermented before being double-distilled in a mix of stainless steel and copper stills. It is then aged in barrels that were previously used to age Cutwater Whiskey, imparting rich flavors of vanilla, oak, and subtle spices.
Cutwater Spirits is a renowned San Diego-based distillery that began as a passion project by Yuseff Cherney. Initially focused on craft brewing, the brand expanded into the spirits world, creating a diverse portfolio that includes whiskey, rum, vodka, gin, and tequila.
