    Vinification and aging

    Don Julio 1942 Tequila is crafted from carefully cultivated blue agave. After harvesting, the agave hearts are slowly cooked in brick ovens, allowing complex aromas to develop. Fermentation occurs naturally, enhancing the expression of terroir flavors. Finally, distillation is carried out in small batches to guarantee optimal quality. The tequila is then aged in white oak barrels, imparting notes of vanilla and caramel that enrich its character. This traditional method results in a tequila of rare elegance.
