The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
La Reina Reposado Raicilla is a lightly rested expression of this traditional Jalisco agave spirit, aged just enough to soften raicilla's raw character while preserving its distinctive earthy personality. Living up to the brand's name, "The Queen," it reflects the regional saying that mezcal reigns as agave's king while raicilla holds the title of queen.
The nose shows mellowed agave alongside subtle wood notes from its brief rest, while the palate balances rustic, vegetal raicilla character with a touch of vanilla and light oak. The finish is smooth and warming, rounder than an unaged blanco but still distinctly raicilla.
Sip it neat or on the rocks to enjoy its balanced complexity, or use it in an agave-forward cocktail where a touch of barrel influence is welcome. It pairs nicely with grilled pork, roasted vegetables, or a simple citrus salad.
A great entry point for those new to raicilla, this reposado offers approachable complexity without sacrificing authenticity. Order La Reina Reposado Raicilla online at Habits Bottle Shop and explore one of Mexico's most traditional agave spirit categories.

Ways To Pour It
Neat
Served on its own in a rocks glass, letting the full character come through exactly as crafted.
On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
