Don Julio 1942 Anejo Tequila New Year of The Horse 2026 Edition

Celebration meets pedigree in a striking Lunar New Year release. The 2026 Year of the Horse edition dresses iconic 1942 in vivid red-and-gold collectible packaging. 

Inside the box, the liquid stays classic: 100% Blue Weber agave, slow-crafted at La Primavera and matured for about two-and-a-half years for seamless depth. 

Expect the signature 1942 profile—silky texture, warm oak, vanilla, and roasted agave—now paired with a gift-ready presentation that looks as polished as it tastes.

Don Julio 1942 Añejo Tequila New Year of the Horse 2026 Edition celebrates momentum, elegance, and forward motion. This limited release reimagines the iconic 1942 bottle with symbolic design honoring the Year of the Horse. Inside, nothing changes. That’s the point. The tequila remains the same benchmark Añejo revered for its smoothness and depth. Aged for two and a half years, it balances richness with precision. Collectible presentation meets proven liquid credibility.

Nose:
The nose opens soft and inviting. Warm vanilla, caramel, and roasted agave rise gently. Subtle oak, dried fruit, and a hint of floral sweetness add refinement.

Palate:
The palate is silky and layered. Notes of toffee, baked agave, and vanilla cream unfold smoothly. Light spice, toasted oak, and tropical fruit provide depth without weight.

Finish:
The finish is long and polished. Sweet oak and vanilla linger effortlessly. A gentle warmth fades clean, leaving a refined final impression.

Pair with seared scallops or butter-poached lobster for elegance. Jamón ibérico complements its sweetness and texture. Dark chocolate truffles enhance its cocoa tones. A simple vanilla flan mirrors its creamy finish perfectly.
