Founded by John Rexer, Ilegal began as a passion project before establishing itself as one of the most decorated mezcal brands in the world, earning recognition from Esquire and gold medals at both the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the Tequila.net Awards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eEach batch of the Reposado is aged to taste for six months rather than to a fixed bottling date, using a combination of new and used American oak barrels with a medium char, sourced from Kelvin Cooperage, a family-run business since 1963. The result is a velvety, approachable mezcal that retains the wild agave character of the spirit whilst gaining a gentle layer of oak refinement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Note by Ilegal Mezcal:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCaramelised pear and bitter orange on the nose.
