Product Overview
Humano Reposado Tequila Texas Edition Aged in Still Austin Whiskey Barrels
Limited Edition Reposado Tequila | 80 Proof | 40% ABV | 750mL
Discover a distinctive collaboration between Mexican tequila craftsmanship and Texas whiskey heritage with Humano Reposado Tequila Texas Edition. Crafted in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, this limited-release tequila brings together the vibrant character of mature Blue Weber agave with the rich influence of Still Austin bourbon barrels. The result is a refined, flavorful spirit that bridges two traditions, offering a balanced combination of cooked agave, orchard fruit, warm vanilla, and toasted oak.
The Texas Edition is fully aged for six months in select Still Austin bourbon barrels, allowing the tequila to develop additional depth while preserving its natural agave character. Its production combines traditional and modern techniques, including agave cooking in brick ovens and autoclaves, roller-mill extraction, closed fermentation, and double distillation. The collaboration also carries a personal connection: Humano co-founder Luis Abundis helped launch Still Austin Whiskey Co. in 2017, making this release a reunion between longtime industry collaborators.
On the nose, warm cooked agave meets ripe apple, vanilla, and toasted oak. The palate develops layers of caramel, baking spice, and subtle bourbon-inspired warmth, creating a silky and balanced tasting experience. Its lingering finish brings together bright agave, creamy vanilla, and gentle oak. Whether enjoyed neat, poured over ice, or used in a premium tequila cocktail, Humano Texas Edition offers a distinctive expression for tequila enthusiasts and whiskey lovers alike.

How to Enjoy
Enjoy neat in a tequila tasting glass to appreciate the balance of cooked agave, vanilla, and toasted oak. Pouring it over a large ice cube creates a slower, more relaxed sipping experience. For cocktails, try it in a tequila Old Fashioned or an elevated Margarita, where its caramel and baking-spice notes complement citrus and bitters.
