Don Julio 1942 'Ultima Reserva'

Product description
Don Julio is one of Mexico’s most iconic Tequila producers. Since its founding by Don Julio González in 1942, the company has earned a reputation both for the quality of its Tequila and for its record of innovation. It was among the first producers to release an Añejo Tequila and was the first to release a clear Añejo Tequila, ushering in the new category of Cristalino Tequila.

The company released its latest Tequila expression: Ultima Reserva. The Tequila is crafted from the last crop of agave planted by Don Julio and his family and was finished in Madeira casks using a Solera-like maturation process. This is the first time that Don Julio has finished a Tequila in a sweet wine cask.

Tequila Don Julio Ultima Reserva is rested in oak barrels previously used to age bourbon and finished in seasoned Madeira wine casks. The team of experts at Tequila Don Julio implemented a Solera aging method, which combines and matures tequilas of different characteristics, allowing Don Julio González and his family’s final agave harvest to remain at the heart of this rare tequila. The result is an exceptional spirit beautifully golden in colour that begins with a nose of toasted oak and caramel, follows with hints of apricot and orange, and finishes with deliciously smooth honeyed agave that is best enjoyed neat.
