About the product
The Corazón Tequila Expresiones Reposado Weller CYPB is part of a unique collaboration series that blends tequila craftsmanship with bourbon influence. Made from 100% Blue Weber agave in Jalisco, Mexico, this reposado is aged for about 9 months in barrels that previously held W.L. Weller CYPB bourbon from Buffalo Trace Distillery.
This barrel finishing is the defining feature. Instead of standard neutral or generic ex-bourbon casks, it uses highly sought-after wheated bourbon barrels, which add a softer, sweeter, and more rounded influence compared to typical rye-heavy bourbon barrels.
The result is a hybrid profile where agave meets bourbon-style sweetness, creating a tequila that often appeals strongly to whiskey drinkers.

Aromatic and layered, with citrus, light caramel, and herbal freshness on the nose. The palate is smooth and slightly sweet, showing cooked agave, dried fruit, vanilla, and gentle baking spice. Mid-palate introduces subtle bourbon influence, with hints of oak, honey, and a touch of mint or herbal lift. The finish is medium to long, clean and balanced, with lingering citrus, spice, and soft oak warmth.
