    Producer

    Producer

    Don Julio is located in the Jalisco region, in the heart of Mexico, where the warm, sunny climate is ideal for growing blue agave. The meticulously tended agave fields stretch as far as the eye can see and are harvested by hand, ensuring optimal quality. The harvest takes place when the agave reaches its full maturity, a crucial step in achieving the best flavor. Don Julio González's passion for his craft is reflected in every bottle, a testament to expertise passed down through generations.

    Owner and history

    Today, the Don Julio brand belongs to Diageo, one of the world's largest spirits producers. However, Don Julio González's legacy lives on through his products, which continue to reflect his commitment to quality and authenticity. The current owners are dedicated to maintaining the high standards established by Don Julio, while also exploring new avenues to promote tequila on the international stage. Their passion for craftsmanship and respect for Mexican traditions make Don Julio a true ambassador for tequila.

    Vinification and aging

    Don Julio Blanco Tequila is crafted using traditional methods, where the agave is cooked in stone ovens before being crushed to extract the juice. Fermentation, carried out with natural yeasts, develops unique aromas. Distillation is performed in two stages to guarantee exceptional purity. The tequila is then bottled without aging, thus preserving the freshness and vibrancy of its aromas. This artisanal process, combined with rigorous quality control, makes Don Julio Blanco an exceptional tequila.

    The team's opinion

    A tequila of great purity, clean and vibrant, where fresh agave expresses itself elegantly in a lemony and crystalline finish.
