Don Julio 1942

Don Julio González’s tequila-making adventure started in 1942 in the Jalisco Highlands of Mexico. 1942 is the ultimate tribute to his devotion and commitment to the craft of tequila making. The flavour profile of this Tequila is smooth, complex, rich, and iconic.

This small-batch anejo tequila, launched in 2002 to mark 60 years since Don Julio González embarked on his tequila-making journey. It is aged for up to two-and-a-half-years in American white oak casks and filled into an elegant, tapered bottle, reminiscent of an agave leaf, or ‘penca.’ Remarkably well-polished and complex, this tequila displays aromas of Turkish delight, cassia bark and toffee on the nose, complemented by notes of charred grapefruit peel, toasted hazelnut and pleasing hints of vanilla.
