Tequila Zarpado Releases Carolina Reaper-Infused Expression

Bourbon

August 7, 2025

Tequila Zarpado REAPER bottle

Tequila Zarpado introduced its latest expression, Zarpado Reaper, a spicy blanco tequila infused with a blend of Carolina Reaper and Habanero peppers. This is the first Carolina Reaper-infused Tequila to hit the market, and Zarpado’s fourth expression in their lineup of handcrafted Tequilas.

Like all Zarpado Tequilas, the new spicy Blanco is made from 100 percent mature Blue Agave that is slow-cooked and double distilled, providing a balanced, textured and agave-forward profile. The addition of the peppers not only adds a fiery spice, but also brings forward fruity and tropical flavors from the Carolina Reaper and floral notes from the Habanero, complementing the Tequila profile perfectly. 

“Spicy cocktails and spirits continue to gain popularity and we’re excited to launch this truly unique spicy Tequila,” Terry Lozoff, VP and Spirits Director at Latitude Beverage, said in a news release. “You’re going to taste the heat, of course, but Carolina Reaper peppers also have flavor notes that work really well with Zarpado’s profile. The spice is balanced, and doesn’t get in the way of the great flavor of this Tequila. It’s the perfect spirit for spice lovers and an ideal addition to your favorite spicy cocktail.”

Tequila Zarpado Reaper has an SRP of $28.99 and will be available for purchase online in most states and on shelves in various markets across the U.S. For more information and to purchase online, visit TequilaZarpado.com.
