Batanga
Reposado Tequila
Batanga Reposado Tequila is an award-winning premium tequila made from 100% agave, crafted by Casa Orendain. Only the best agave is used with the piñas being traditionally baked in brick ovens for its unique flavour. Fermentation uses an original formula, passed down the generations for 80 years. Only pot stills with an internal coverage of copper in the coil are used in the process. For maturation only ex-Bourbon barrels are used. Rested for a minimum of 4 - 6 months which is double the minimum time required (2 months).

In the western Mexico town of Tequila, there’s a small nondescript cantina called La Capilla - home of the Batanga, a simple drink created in the 1950’s by Don Javier Degado Corona, the bar’s owner. The Batanga is simple: nothing more than tequila, coke and fresh lime juice, served in a tall glass with a salted rim. But as Don Javier will tell you, it’s flavour isn’t only in the ingredients - it’s the big knife, which he uses to stir the cocktail, that’s the secret to the perfect Batanga.

Light gold, clear. A fresh and vibrant nose of grass and pepper. Subtle oak plays a complimentary role on the palate which shows great refinement and integration with a crisp and flavoursome finish.
