Manuscrito Reposado Chapter 3 is a rare single-chapter release that marries the brand's signature cooked agave character with the refined influence of ex-Chardonnay French Oak barrels, delivering a buttery, champagne-hued reposado unlike anything else in the category.Hand-crafted by Master Distiller Oscar Vazquez Camarena at El Sabino Distillery in Jesus Maria, Mexico, Chapter 3 is built from single-estate, 100% Blue Weber agave plants harvested at six to eight years of peak maturity. The first batch was aged for over three months in ex-Chardonnay French Oak barrels, a choice that lends this high-proof reposado its distinctively smooth, layered complexity while honoring the bold agave backbone Manuscrito is known for. Nose: Warm cooked agave, rich butterscotch, honey, and a gentle wave of vanilla and toasted oak. Palate: Buttery and full-bodied with notes of oak, baking spice, caramelized agave, and a hint of stone fruit carried by the ex-Chardonnay influence. Finish: Long, warming, and smooth with lingering sweetness and a touch of spice that rewards a second sip. Manuscrito Reposado Chapter 3 shines neat or on a single large ice cube, but it also elevates classic cocktails beautifully. Try it in an Old Fashioned for a buttery, oak-driven twist, or use it as the base of a Tequila Sour to let the honey and spice notes take center stage.Best served neat or on the rocks to fully appreciate its craftsmanship. Made from single-estate 100% Blue Weber agave, aged in ex-Chardonnay French Oak, and distilled in Jesus Maria, Mexico.
