The cool, hand-made bottle is just the beginning of the experience.

Los Azulejos Tequila is produced in the heart of the motherland of the agave-forward Spirit: Jalisco, Mexico. It was founded by Don Pedro Quantinilla, a Mexico City native who wanted to share his passion for Mexican art and craft with the rest of the world. Quantinilla named his traditionally-made authentic Tequila after the famous painted Talavera tiles, called ‘azulejos’, that you can see on the fancier houses in Mexico and some other countries.

But art is not the only thing that Mexicans do differently. They do holidays in their own joyful way, too. Take The Day of the Dead or ‘Dia de Muertos’, which is a colorful celebration of the lives of the dead. I guess you could say that instead of “crying because it’s over, they smile because it happened”? In any case, it’s quite different from how most of the world views death.

Azulejos Día de Muertos Añejo comes in an artfully hand-crafted clay Talavera bottle that was hand-painted and embodies the spirit of Mexican art and culture. But this is not just one of those gimmicks where the bottle is the main act. The Tequila is distilled in stainless steel stills and then again slowly in copper stills. It rests for 30 months in French oak and comes out with a lovely rich body that’s way more complex than your ordinary Añejo.

Tequila labeled Gold (Oro) is your indicator (i.e., red flag) that you’re dealing with a mixto Tequila - unaged silver Tequila that has been colored and flavored with caramel to give the appearance of aged Tequila.
The strongest Tequila available for sale clocks in at 75% ABV (150 proof). This shouldn’t come as a surprise, but drinking huge amounts of this spirit is likely te-quil-a.
Need a salt shaker and lime? Nah. The Mexicans take their Tequila neat and prefer to leave the lime and salt for their margaritas. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to follow suit.

Tequila goes bad with time! Once you open a bottle of Tequila, you better be in the mood to drink it. Generally, you have one to two months before oxidation and evaporation diminish the quality of the Tequila and destroy the Agave flavor profile.

In general, price of Tequila goes up with age, so añejos and extra añejos will be the most expensive and blancos the cheapest.
