Doña Mariana
Rooster Rojo Ahumado Reposado
Rooster Rojo Ahumado Reposado is a tequila aged in oak, offering subtle vanilla and cookie dough notes with mild smokiness. The agave was cooked in an earthen pit to impart a gentle smoke character that does not overwhelm the palate. This production method creates an interesting profile where sweet, creamy flavors coexist with faint earthy undertones. While the smoke is present on the nose and palate, it remains restrained rather than intense. The result is a balanced spirit that highlights the effects of traditional pit cooking without dominating the agave’s natural sweetness.
