“Arte NOM is the brainchild of wunderkind Jake Lustig. An American who grew up in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, Lustig has been importing, selling, and writing about agave spirits his entire adult life. He asked his favorite producers of blanco, reposado and añejo tequilas to make special batches just for him to showcase their mastery of these respective styles.

This reposado is made by Feliciano Vivanco in Arandas from estate-grown agave and spends ten months in ex-bourbon barrels.” The Distiller
