What Does the Word Reposado Mean in Spanish?

I bought a bottle of Tequila Corralejo in Mexico not to long ago, and on the label it says the word "REPOSADO". There was also a red bottle that said "A帽ejo" which i have figured out to be aged, but google's translator said Repasado means restful. I can't imagine this has to do with the Tequila.|||The terms reposado and anejo refer to the length of time the tequila has been aged:








reposado -- anywhere from 2 months to one year.








A帽ejo - anywhere from 1 year to about 3 years.








Be careful not to confuse the terms reposado and repasado'; they are only slightly different in spelling but they mean different things in Spanish.|||It was left "to rest" during the aging process, like what's done with a bottle of red wine.|||i like reposado better|||It just means aged all tequila is aged
