THE LOCALS CRAFTING COCKTAILS
Bartender Kyle Marvé of The Fleur Room in West Hollywood, California, creates his Komorita cocktail combining pink Himalayan salt and prickly pear puree with Tequila Komos. “Tequila Komos provides a complex base for tequila-based cocktails,” he says. “The Rosa Reposado is an excellent foundation for classic tequila cocktails such as the Margarita and Paloma. The red wine barrel component adds tasting levels that other reposados lack. And the ruby color is a visual pleaser.”
Atlanta Georgia bartender Colten Murry of L.O.A uses Komos Reposado Rosa to create his Heming’s Way cocktail. “Nothing inspires a great cocktail more than great ingredients,” he shares. “Tequila Komos invokes craftsmanship, creativity, and joy. The bottles are eye catching on the backbar and are easy to handle from a mixologist’s perspective. Every time we pick up a bottle our clientele knows it’s going to be special. And it always is!”
