Don Julio 1942 Anejo

Description

Don Julio Gonzalez-Frausto Estradas tequila-making adventure began in 1942 at the age of 17 in the Jalisco Highlands of Mexico, where he built and opened La Primavera distillery. From the beginning, Don Julio€™s passion was reinforced by a strong work ethic, a bold spirit of innovation, and absolute dedication to craftsmanship.

A true pioneer in tequila making from field to bottle, for a good forty years, Don Julio meticulously dissected every detail of the process and either innovated or improved in his goal to make the very best tequila. Each small, but significant innovation and every detail of Don Julio€™s dedication to his craft can still be tasted in every sip of Tequila Don Julio today.

Don Julio is particularly proud of this limited-edition Anejo, and rightfully so: €œI established my first tequila distillery in 1942 and to commemorate that very special year, I have created Don Julio 1942 a unique and limited edition, I personally selected the stock for this new release. Its golden line and perfect clarity I find appealing and a testament to its purity.€
