20+ Years of Innovation
2 days ago
Made with skill, art, and passion, AsomBroso Tequila is inventive while honoring the long-standing traditional methods. This exceptional brand has been awarded prestigious accolades in the distilled spirits industry and is recognized as an ultra-premium tequila.
Ricardo Gamarra, the creator of AsomBroso Tequila, has accomplished many firsts in tequila history. He was the first to market a pink hued Bordeaux rested reposado. A tequila like no other, La Rosa reposado begins with our awarded El Platino silver. Once the final filtration is completed, the tequila is then “rested” (reposado) for 3 months in French Oak casks previously used for fine Bordeaux wine. We created this resting process which imparts the natural pink color from the wine and gives our reposado a subtle sweet finish resulting in an unparalleled taste experience.
A few additional AsomBroso originalities are listed below:
· Resting tequila in new French Oak barrels
- Double barrel resting extra anejo tequila
- Resting a 10-year aged tequila in Grand Marnier cognac barrel
- Double barrel resting a 6-year tequila in an Irish Whiskey barrel
- Double barrel resting an 11-year tequila in vintage port barrels
- Rest tequila in new French Oak for 11 years and bring it to market
