Other Info: The Neck tag on the Chinaco bottle reads, "When Chinaco 100% Blue
Agave tequila first arrived in the United States in 1983, it created a new category
within the tequila industry. Chinaco was the first of the true super-premium tequilas to
come to the USA. Immediately Chinaco built a reputation for itself among the true
connoisseurs of great tequila. After the distillery was closed in the late 1980's,
Chinaco became the most sought after tequila ever produced. Since then, many other
tequilas have attempted to emulate its success. Now, under the guidance of the four
sons of the founder, Guillermo Gonzalez, La Gonzalena distillery is once again
producing legendary tequila in very limited quantities.
Chinaco Reposado tequila is carefully aged for up to 1 year. Unlike other reposado
tequilas, Chinaco Reposado is aged in selected oak barrels, not large vats. This allows
the tequila increased exposure to the wood resulting in a polished character.
Serve Chinaco Reposado as you like it: neat, on the rocks, in a margarita, or any way
you choose to enjoy it.
May we also suggest the fresh Chinaco Blanco and the legendary Chinaco Anejo.
