Product Information

He soon realized that to create a tequila that stands apart, one must control every aspect of the process, from the cultivation of the agave to the bottling of the final product. At some point, I had a liking for Don Julio as it was my initial experience with Reposado, but as my palate evolved, I no longer drink it. If you prefer to have it on the rocks, use large ice cubes to prevent dilution and maintain its integrity. The time spent in the barrel gave Blanco an amber hue along with vanilla and caramel flavors due to the contact with the barrel. Its exquisite taste is rich with citrus and agave, alongside vanilla and caramel notes with soft nutty undertones.

Don Julio 70® Añejo Cristalino Tequila is the culmination of 70 years of knowledge, expertise and innovation that brings the smoothness of a Blanco tequila and the complexity of an Añejo tequila together for a totally unique tequila experience. This deliciously smooth expression takes Tequila Don Julio's traditional Reposado and finishes it in a highly coveted European cask, which previously held wine infused with macerated orange peel, for a silky, sophisticated, light citrus taste. After the fermentation process is complete it results in a sweet, slight alcoholic agave beer which is then put into stills where it is distilled to become tequila.Don Julio Gonzalez-Frausto Estrada was born on 7 January 1925 in Atotonilco, Jalisco, where today's main facility is located. Today, the world is learning what Mexico already knows: that it is passion above all else that makes a great tequila.

Melita Kiely, editor of The Spirits Business magazine and chair of The Global Spirits Masters, said: “Don Julio lived up to its reputation for high-quality Tequila in this year’s blind tasting. That extra time intensifies the colors and notes of a reposado, darkens the tequila even further and produces a richer taste.Often, añejos move beyond the intense—and occasionally harsh—bite of young tequila when acidic tones are replaced with sugary, caramelized ones. It has the same sweet agave character and smoothness of the anejo, but slightly less of the brandy-like qualities that most anejos exhibit.
