REVEL's Avila Wins Reposado of the Year
Earning top honors from some of the country's most
prestigious competitions, REVEL is fast making a name for itself within the
spirits industry. At this year's 2018 New York
International Spirits Competition, REVEL's Reposado garnered significant
praise from the judges, winning both a gold medal and being crowned
"Tequila Reposado of the Year." REVEL's Blanco Avila® also
took home the bronze medal at the competition.
REVEL's Avila® is truly the first of its kind
as it represents a new category of distilled liquor derived from 100% blue
weber agave. A cousin to the popular tequila agave spirit, Avila® can
only be produced using agave grown and distilled in the Morelos region,
a small state in the south central part of Mexico. The world's first Avila®,
REVEL is handcrafted using a blend of roasted and steamed bulbs or piñas, a
process that marries the old-world characteristics of mezcal with newer
tequila-like techniques to provide a truly one-of-a-kind profile.
Sold in upscale bars and liquor stores in Minnesota and California,
REVEL is currently available in two expressions: Blanco, which is immediately
bottled after distillation, and Reposado, which is aged for 12 months in a
once-used whisky oak barrel to provide a scotch-like taste.
