This Is What Reposado Tequila SHOULD Taste Like | Atanasio Orígenes Review Atanasio Orígenes Reposado tequila review featuring an old-school, additive-free reposado made at NOM 1599 by the Carranza family. Bottled at 46% ABV, this traditional tequila delivers bold agave, spice, and herbal depth. This is Tequila Orígenes Reposado, produced in El Medineño, Jalisco by Familia Landeros under Maestro Tequilero René Carranza. Designed as a tribute to how tequila was made over a century ago, Orígenes is bottled at a higher proof than the Carranza family’s core lineup and highlights a more lactic, herbaceous, agave-forward profile. Production Details: • 100% Blue Weber agave • Cooked 24 hours in autoclave • Roller mill extraction • Ambient yeast fermentation (6–8 days) • Open-air stainless steel fermentation • Double distilled in stainless pot stills • Aged 6 months & 25 days in used American oak • Additive-free • 46% ABV Tasting Notes: On the nose, lightly spiced aromas of clove, black peppercorn, anise, and ginger lead the way. The palate opens with toasted nuts, cooked fruit, and dried corn leaves, finishing dense, herbal, and agave-forward with restrained oak and lingering spice. I recently interviewed Sheccid Elizabeth Carranza, and this bottle perfectly reflects the Carranza family’s commitment to traditional tequila, honesty, and heritage. If you love real reposado tequila, high-proof expressions, and additive-free production, this one deserves your attention. Let me know in the comments if you prefer agave-forward reposados or more barrel-driven styles.
