Humano Texas Edition Still Austin Whiskey Barrels Tequila Reposado
Reposado | 40% ABV | 80 Proof | 750mL | Jalisco, Mexico | Aged 6 Months in Still Austin Bourbon Barrels | Limited Release
Process & Profile
Humano Texas Edition Still Austin Barrels Tequila Reposado connects Jalisco-grown agave with barrels from Texas bourbon producer Still Austin Whiskey Co. This limited release reunites Humano co-founder Luis Abundis, who helped launch Still Austin in 2017, with Chris Seals through a collaboration centered on six months of bourbon-barrel maturation.
Humano sources its agave from a single estate in the Highlands of Jalisco. For the Texas Edition, the cooking approach combines 60% oven cooking with 40% autoclave cooking. Roller milling, closed fermentation, and double distillation in stainless steel pot stills with copper prepare the tequila for aging.
The tequila then spends its full six months of maturation in select Still Austin bourbon barrels. Cooked agave and ripe apple meet vanilla, toasted oak, caramel, and baking spice, creating a silky profile with gentle whiskey warmth and a lingering finish.
