LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

The bottle that changed the game. While purists might find it on the sweeter side, its influence is undeniable. It is pure liquid luxury—the ultimate celebratory shot or sip.

The Library Note

Don Julio González began his tequila journey at the age of 17. His commitment to quality was so absolute that he would plant his agaves further apart to allow them to mature more fully. 1942 is the ultimate expression of his vision, presented in an iconic, elongated bottle inspired by the agave leaf.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Rich caramel, toffee, and vanilla with a hint of roasted tropical fruit.

THE PALATE

Velvety and sweet. Dominant notes of roasted agave, vanilla bean, sun-ripened tropical fruit, and spiced oak.

THE FINISH

Silky smooth with a lingering taste of sweet agave and vanilla.

THE PERFECT SERVE

The 'Amber' Sip: Serve 2 oz in a Riedel Tequila glass or a snifter. Do not chill. The warmth of the glass will release the complex aromas of chocolate and caramel, making it the perfect post-dinner digestif.

Composition

100% Blue Weber Agave

EXPERT TECHNIQUE

Hand-harvested agave, slow-roasted in masonry ovens, and aged in American White Oak barrels for 30 months.
