Don Julio Añejo Tequila is a testament to the craft of making a superior aged tequila — barrel aged in smaller batches for 18 months in American white oak barrels, crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave, and rich, distinctive, and wonderfully complex in every measure. Its flavour strikes the perfect balance between agave, wood, and hints of vanilla: lime, grapefruit, and mandarin citrus aromas with a rich touch of caramel on the nose; full-bodied cooked agave, wild honey, and oak-infused butterscotch on the palate; and a bright, lightly spiced finish with the essence of wild honey. Best experienced neat in a snifter or simply on the rocks. The benchmark for aged tequila.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
Deep, warm amber — the rich, inviting colour of a tequila aged for 18 months in American white oak barrels in smaller batches, with the depth and luminosity that patient oak maturation and 100% Blue Weber Agave deliver.
Aroma
A fresh blend of lime, grapefruit, and mandarin citrus aromas with a rich touch of caramel — the distinctive, expressive, and beautifully layered bouquet of an Añejo tequila crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave and aged for 18 months in American white oak.
Palate
Full-bodied and complex — expressions of cooked agave, wild honey, and oak-infused butterscotch, with the richness, depth, and wonderful complexity that 18 months of smaller-batch barrel ageing delivers. The perfect balance between agave, wood, and hints of vanilla.
Pairs With
Best experienced neat in a snifter or simply on the rocks — Don Julio Añejo is equally at home as a sophisticated digestif, alongside dark chocolate, aged cheeses, or slow-cooked meats, and as the foundation of a premium cocktail where its full-bodied complexity can shine. The benchmark for aged tequila at its most refined.
Finish
Bright and lightly spiced — the essence of wild honey lingering long and satisfyingly, the clean, elegant close of an Añejo tequila of exceptional craft and character.
