Don Vicente is naturally handcrafted in Destileria El Pandillo, located in the Highlands of Jalisco in a famous tequila town called Jesus Maria. Destileria El Pandillo is one of the best, most sustainable, and most innovative distilleries in the world. It has topped many lists as the best tequila distillery in Mexico. This is all masterminded by our master distiller Ing. Felipe J. Camarena. Felipe Camarena is a 3rd generation Tequila Distiller and a 6th generation Agave Farmer, a family tradition going all the way back to 1861. His main goal is to produce the cleanest, most natural, and traditionally made tequila there can be. Camarena is also an engineer by profession. The way he mixes his engineering skills along with his tequila knowledge can be seen throughout El Pandillo in the most innovative and impressive way. Don Vicente Reposado is remarkably smooth. The same body of Don Vicente Blanco rested in used American White Oak Bourbon barrels for less than a year. The aging adds a complexity of aromas and flavors. The cooked Blue Weber Agave, minerality, and earthiness are all still very present due to the used barrel not overpowering them; with hints of vanilla, caramel, and butterscotch.
