A love letter to Blue Weber agave, Tequila Don Julio Alma Miel celebrates the plant that it’s made from in every sip. Crafted with the delectable nectar found at the core of the agave plant, which is transformed into rich oven-roasted agave honey, this spirit boasts notes of wildflowers and dried fruits on the nose. Robust and flavorful, the oven-roasted agave honey creates a palate-pleasing dream — one ready to be enjoyed straight or mixed into an ultra-smooth classic cocktail, like the Negroni perhaps.
A Sweeter Take on Tradition
Joining an already full-flavored range of premium tequilas, Tequila Don Julio Alma Miel is crafted using the unique enmelado process, which adds depth and texture that celebrates the spirit’s innovative qualities, from first sip to lingering finish.
Bright citrus and spiced fruits like baked apples, apricots, and cherries permeate this sophisticated joven or “young” blend. Crafted using the brand’s traditional slow distillation method, twice-distilled unaged blanco tequila is blended with oven-roasted agave honey sourced from the hearts of fully mature, hand-selected agave plants grown in the Jaliscan Highlands of Mexico. Añejo tequila, another key component of Tequila Don Julio Alma Miel, is aged for at least 14 months before being finished in French Crémant de Limoux wine casks, adding another complexity to the smooth and spiced sipping tequila.
The soon-to-be bar cart staple is ready to be enjoyed on the rocks, neat, or in signature drinks that dazzle. Packaged in a glass bottle inspired by tones of the Blue Weber Agave plant, the design is a proud nod to Don Julio’s Mexican roots.
