Don Fulano Anejo Tequila
Don Fulano Anejo Tequila is unlike most añejos: a blend of tequilas aged a minimum of two and a half years — some up to five — in new and used French Limousin oak, bottled at 40% ABV in a 750mL bottle. Neither predominantly sweet nor overpowered by wood, it keeps the agave's delicate character front and center: elegant dark fruit, jasmine, and peppery agave with banana, maple, and coffee. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

An Añejo That Stays Tequila
Many añejos let the barrel do the talking; Don Fulano's does not. By blending tequilas aged between two and a half and five years in French Limousin oak — the same wood used for Cognac — master distiller Enrique Fonseca builds cask character without burying the Highland agave underneath. The result is refined rather than heavy: an añejo for drinkers who want their agave with seasoning, not syrup.
Tasting Notes
Elegant and aromatic: rich dark fruit, fragrant jasmine and honeysuckle on the nose. The palate carries the delicacy through — dried fruit over a base of sweet banana and maple syrup, ground coffee, sweet almond nuttiness, and peppery agave spice. The finish is very long, with dry spice and agave pepperiness.
How to Enjoy
Neat, full stop — this is a sipping añejo at its most refined. A snifter and a few minutes of rest let the aromatics open; pair with a coffee dessert or enjoy it as the nightcap it was blended to be.
