Product Description
The Agave
BLUE WEBER AGAVE is the native plant to their native land, Jalisco and it just so happens to make the very finest tequila in the world. People often wrongly describe it as a cactus – perhaps because of its spiky leaves but it is in fact, a succulent. We use only 100% blue Weber agave plus water to make el Jimador Tequila. And that’s it. We believe staying true makes for richer, purer taste. Shortcuts aren’t in our nature: it takes seven years for an agave to be good enough for harvest for el Jimador.

The Distillery
el Jimador Reposado begins with 100% hand-harvested blue Weber agave, naturally fermented and double distilled. Then it enjoys a two-month siesta in our own handmade American oak barrels until the perfect moment. The results are worth the wait: an exquisite golden tone, warm seasoned flavors and a smooth, confident agave flavor that really shines through.
It’s aged for at least two months in American oak barrels–where it gets its warm golden tones. This time spent inside the barrel make this tequila golden and warm with rich agave notes. Once bottled, tequila stops aging. Try this 100% blue Weber agave Reposado with our stunning Maestro Jimador recipe.
If the label doesn’t say 100% agave, then your tequila is mixto – the bare minimum to be classified as tequila. A mixto may be only 51% agave, with other ingredients added. el Jimador tequila is always 100% agave— why would you settle for anything less?
el Jimador tequilas use only 100% blue Weber agave.
