Dos Artes Añejo unites two Mexican arts, tequila making and Talavera ceramics, as its name suggests. Each one-liter bottle is a white ceramic decanter hand painted with deep red, navy blue and gold Talavera-style patterns, so no two are exactly alike.
The tequila is made from 100% blue Weber agave at the Casa Tres Mujeres distillery in Amatitán, in the heart of Jalisco's tequila country. It is naturally fermented, double distilled and then aged for three full years in a combination of American and French oak barrels.
Three years in oak brings deep colour and a rich, rounded profile, with caramel, vanilla and dried fruit layered over cooked agave, while the French oak adds a polished spice.
Dos Artes has become one of the most recognisable collector tequilas, and the hand-painted bottle is as much a gift as the tequila inside.
Añejo tequila is aged between one and three years in oak barrels of no more than 600 litres, long enough to add colour, sweetness and spice while keeping the character of the agave, which makes it a natural sipping tequila.
Tequila can only be made from blue Weber agave in five designated Mexican states, chiefly Jalisco, and the finest bottlings are made from 100% agave. Sipping tequila is best enjoyed from a narrow-rimmed glass that concentrates the aromas, at room temperature and without salt or lime, so the character of the agave and the barrel can come through.
