An icon, reimagined for Lunar New Year. The Don Julio 1942 Añejo Year of the Horse 2026 Limited Edition pairs one of the world’s most recognisable tequilas with a collector’s presentation designed for celebration. The Year of the Horse holds special significance for the house. Don Julio González began his tequila journey in 1942, itself a Year of the Horse, marking the beginning of what would become Mexico’s original luxury tequila. This limited release honours that legacy through a striking decorative bottle that blends traditional Mexican ikat rebozo motifs with the symbolism of the Chinese Zodiac horse. Inside, the liquid remains the same globally revered Don Julio 1942. Crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the Highlands of Jalisco and aged for a minimum of two and a half years in American oak barrels, it delivers the signature smoothness that has defined the expression for decades. Silky and composed, it balances roasted agave sweetness with caramel, vanilla and gentle oak spice. Rich without being heavy, polished without losing character. Visually distinctive and produced in limited quantities, this is a bottle designed to be gifted, displayed and remembered long after the final pour. Best enjoyed neat.
