🥃🥃 Tasting Notes
Appearance:
Brilliant and crystal clear, with exceptional clarity achieved through careful charcoal filtration after extended maturation in American white oak.
Aroma:
Clean and elegant, opening with cooked Blue Weber agave, vanilla, and honey. Subtle citrus and floral nuances provide freshness while toasted oak and gentle spice reveal the tequila's extended barrel maturation.
Palate:
Silky, refined, and beautifully balanced:
Sweet cooked agave provides the foundation
Vanilla introduces a creamy, rounded sweetness
Honey adds richness and texture
Toasted American oak provides mature barrel character
Citrus zest contributes brightness and freshness
Caramel adds a subtle confectionary richness
Gentle baking spice brings warmth to the mid-palate
Roasted agave maintains the tequila's essential character
Charcoal filtration creates an exceptionally clean and polished texture
Añejo richness remains present despite the tequila's crystal-clear appearance
80 Proof keeps the profile elegant, smooth, and approachable
Finish:
Clean, warm, and lingering, with sweet agave, vanilla, honey, toasted oak, citrus, and gentle spice gradually fading from the palate. The combination of mature barrel flavors and Cristalino freshness creates a finish that is both polished and remarkably easy to enjoy.

Description
Don Julio 70 Añejo Cristalino – Día de Muertos 2026 Limited Edition (750mL) — Patricio Campillo “El Puente Eterno” Artist Edition
Celebrate Mexican heritage, artistry, and one of tequila's most influential modern expressions with Don Julio 70 Añejo Cristalino Día de Muertos 2026 Limited Edition. This highly collectible Artist Edition pairs the pioneering Don Julio 70 Cristalino with an extraordinary bottle designed by renowned Mexican designer Patricio Campillo in honor of Día de Muertos.
For the 2026 edition, Campillo created “El Puente Eterno” — The Eternal Bridge, inspired by the symbolic bridge of cempasúchil, or Mexican marigolds, traditionally believed to guide loved ones home during Día de Muertos. The artwork portrays two souls reunited across this eternal connection, transforming the iconic Don Julio 70 bottle into a vibrant celebration of remembrance, reunion, family, and the bonds that continue across generations.
Inside the commemorative bottle is Don Julio 70 Añejo Cristalino, the groundbreaking expression created to commemorate founder Don Julio González's 70th anniversary of tequila making. Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave, the tequila is twice distilled, matured for more than a year in American white oak barrels, and then carefully charcoal filtered. This filtration restores its brilliant crystal-clear appearance while preserving the vanilla, honey, toasted oak, and mature character developed during barrel aging.
