In this review, we explore the story behind this limited-edition reposado, its connection to the New York/New Jersey Agave Club, and the charitable work supporting Hinte Buena and the community of San Pedro de los Landeros in Mexico.
Produced at NOM 1580, this Tierra de Ensueño reposado is bottled at 45.5% ABV (91 proof). The club members traveled to the distillery in 2025 to select the barrel, making this a particularly special single-barrel release.

With only a couple hundred bottles produced, this limited release offers a distinctive combination of tequila character and long-aged bourbon barrel influence.
