Mayenda Tequila, known for its innovative approach to tequila-making, has just launched its latest creation: Mayenda Tequila Reposado Double Cask. This new addition to the Mayenda lineup offers an elevated sipping experience, perfect for those looking to savor a refined tequila this summer.
Building on the success of Mayenda Blanco, the first tequila made with the brand's unique process of infusing roasted agave and agave miel (honey) before the final distillation, the Reposado Double Cask takes things a step further. This tequila undergoes a six-month aging process in a combination of American and European oak barrels, enhancing its complexity and depth.
Jesus Susunaga, Maestro Tequilero at Casa San Nicolás, explains the inspiration behind the new release: “With Mayenda Blanco, we knew we had unlocked new possibilities for expressing deeper flavors of the agave, thanks to the two extra steps in our signature process; yet it still felt like we had only scratched the surface of what was possible. When developing our Reposado, we decided to employ a double cask maturation and longer aging process. This resulted in an exceptionally smooth and balanced, aged tequila that maintains the soul of our beloved Blanco.”
Mayenda's signature process starts with 100% Blue Weber agave, grown in the highlands of Jalisco. The roasted agave and agave miel infusion before the final distillation step adds unique, naturally deepened notes of roasted agave and herbal complexity. This process sets Mayenda apart from other premium tequilas, creating a soulful, honeyed, and multi-dimensional flavor profile.
For the Reposado Double Cask, the tequila is aged in both American and European oak barrels. The American oak imparts rich, sweet notes of butterscotch, honeycomb, and vanilla, while the European oak adds a dry, spicy, and earthy profile with hints of cinnamon, chamomile, and red apple. This careful balance of flavors is achieved through a longer aging process of six months, compared to the typical two to three months for most Reposado tequilas.
Every drop of Mayenda Tequila is meticulously blended by Susunaga and his team at Casa San Nicolás to ensure the highest quality and consistency. Susunaga's extensive experience with aged spirits has enabled him to master this delicate craft, pioneering a new type of tequila in Mayenda.
Mayenda Reposado Double Cask can be enjoyed neat or in elevated cocktails like the Morita Martini or Elevated Paloma. Recipes and more information are available on the Mayenda website.
This elegant sipping tequila will be available in select retailers in the United States and Mexico starting June 2024, with a suggested retail price of $75 USD per 750 mL bottle or 1,445 Pesos in Mexico. As always, please sip responsibly.

Commune is set to elevate weekend dining with the launch of its much-anticipated Sunday Brunch series, kicking off on April 5, 2026, with a specially curated Easter edition. Envisioned as a recurring weekly experience, the brunch blends indulgent food, live entertainment, and a relaxed, social atmosphere.
The Easter launch sets the tone with a thoughtfully curated spread that balances freshness and comfort. Guests can explore a variety of salads including Mediterranean couscous and quinoa avocado, alongside small plates such as herb and cheese stuffed mushrooms and tempura vegetables. The mains bring together global and regional flavours, featuring dishes like Ratatouille vegetable steak, Thai Panang curry, Laal Maas, and slow-roasted chicken.
Enhancing the experience further are a dedicated live counter and a grazing table, offering guests an interactive and immersive way to enjoy the meal.
In keeping with the festive spirit, the dessert selection introduces playful Easter-inspired highlights. From hot cross buns pudding and carrot cake with cream cheese frosting to golden Easter eggs with mango-coconut ganache and Royal Kunafa, the menu adds a celebratory finish to the afternoon.
Beyond the food, the brunch experience is designed to encourage guests to slow down and connect. Live singing performances every Sunday add a vibrant yet easy-going energy, transforming the brunch into a leisurely social gathering rather than just a meal.
