Ilegal Mezcal Reposado

Velvety throughout. An exceptional drinking mezcal.
Each lot of Ilegal Mezcal Reposado is aged to taste for 6 months, using a combination of new and used American oak, medium char barrels. Our barrels are sourced from Kelvin Cooperage, a family-run business since 1963.

Ilegal Reposado is aged for 4 months in American oak barrels. It has caramelized pear and bitter orange on the nose, and clove, toffee and hints of vanilla on the palate. The mouth feel is velvety throughout. Like its Ilegal Anejo cousin, this is a great Mezcal to serve to friends who don’t like Mezcal as the barrel aging provides a woody flavor that is familiar to whiskey and tequila drinkers alike.

Tasting Notes:
Aged to taste for 6 months.
Caramelized pear and bitter orange on the nose. Clove, butterscotch, and hints of vanilla on the palate.
