Don Julio 70 Claro Anejo Tequila FAQs
What is Don Julio 70 Claro Anejo Tequila? Don Julio 70 is a crystal clear anejo tequila made by Casa Don Julio in Jalisco, Mexico. It is aged for 18 months in American white oak barrels and then filtered to remove the color while retaining the complexity developed during aging. It is sometimes called a "cristalino" style tequila.
How is Don Julio 70 made? Like all Don Julio tequilas, the 70 is made from 100% Blue Weber agave. After harvesting, the agave hearts are slow-roasted in brick ovens, then fermented and double distilled. The liquid is aged for 18 months and then filtered through activated charcoal, which removes the amber color and leaves a clean, smooth spirit.
What does Don Julio 70 taste like? Don Julio 70 has the smoothness of a blanco with the depth and vanilla-forward character of an aged tequila. You get notes of vanilla, citrus, light oak, and agave with a very clean, silky finish. It is one of the most approachable premium tequilas available.
What is the alcohol content of Don Julio 70? Don Julio 70 is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), which is standard for the category.
How does Don Julio 70 differ from other Don Julio expressions? The main difference is the filtration process. Don Julio Blanco is unaged and clear. Don Julio 1942 is aged longer and retains its amber color. Don Julio 70 sits between these styles, with aging complexity but a filtered-clear appearance that makes it versatile in cocktails or neat pours.
Can I personalize a bottle of Don Julio 70? Yes. Personal Wine offers custom engraving and personalized labels on Don Julio 70 bottles, making them an impressive gift for birthdays, weddings, or any special occasion.
Is Don Julio 70 a good gift? Don Julio 70 is a great gift for tequila fans and spirits enthusiasts alike. Its clean appearance and premium reputation make it stand out. Adding a personal label or engraving turns it into a truly memorable present.
How should I serve Don Julio 70? Don Julio 70 is versatile enough to drink neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails. It makes an excellent margarita, paloma, or simply mixed with tonic and lime. Because it is crystal clear, it also works beautifully in visually elegant cocktails.
Where does Personal Wine ship Don Julio 70? Personal Wine ships Don Julio 70 to most states across the U.S. Liquor cannot be shipped to Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Mississippi, Texas, or Utah due to state regulations.
