Lost Lore Reposado is made at the famous NOM 1414 in the Los Altos Highlands under Master Distiller Sergio Cruz, one of the most respected young distillers in tequila right now. Sergio is known for crafting tequila that is agave-first, honest, and beautifully balanced — and this bottle is a perfect example of why 1414 has so many devoted fans.
This one opens with a rich, welcoming nose full of cooked agave, caramel, and warm cinnamon. The palate stays agave-forward (exactly how I like it), with gentle notes of vanilla and a buttery sweetness that gives the texture a soft, creamy feel without ever becoming heavy or syrupy. There’s just enough spice to keep it lively, and the balance between sweet and dry is dialed in perfectly.
The finish lingers with subtle oak and warm agave, clean and satisfying all the way through.
Bold yet refined, this is a reposado that shows how good classic Highlands craftsmanship can taste.
