tried at monterey tequila fest 2025 tried at the end of the night. not my flavor profile.
Solid offering from the altamar group. I’m not a huge 1137 fan but this works well for cocktails.
Guess I’m in the minority here but lots of pepper on nose and palette. Solid budget bottle
don’t love the nose. Palate just ok
Aroma: some barrel notes, cinnamon, Flavor: 1137 Funk, nutty, a little sweet Finish: short
There is a dispute in the tequila over the right to certify and label tequila as additive free—but the small brands producing it are bearing the brunt of the fallout
VinePair asked bartenders around the country which bottles and brands aren’t getting the love they deserve.
Elvelo Tequila is yet another brand to add to the list, coming out of La Cofradia distillery- NOM 1137 in the valle region of Jalisco, Mexico.
Elvelo Reposado has a very light appearance with a thin body in the glass and minimal leg formation. On the nose, it offers a deep agave aroma with a subtle earthy note. The palate opens with agave, presenting a light flavor profile that transitions into a touch of peppery spice toward the back of the mouth. The finish is crisp and clean, leaving behind a pleasant lingering spicy note.
