Distilled from the juice of the blue agave, premium sipping tequilas stir the senses and ooze sophistication 
AGED
This type of tequila acquires its woody flavor and amber hue from aging in a white oak cask for more than a year. It also is known as
tequila añejo.

RESTED
Kept in an oak cask for more than two months and up to a year, the pale-color rested, or reposado, variety offers a smooth blue agave taste.

SILVER

Bottled immediately after distillation,
the transparent silver tequila—also called
blanco or platino tequila—coats the throat
with strong agave flavor. It is enjoyed
best from a caballito, a small 2-ounce glass.
