In 1942, Don Julio González-Frausto Estrada established roots in Atotonilco El Alto when he acquired his distillery “La Primavera”. He always believed that Reposado was Tequila at its finest. This limited-edition Tequila, made in honour of him and the distillery he founded, takes Don Julio Reposado and finishes it in European casks that previously held wine infused with macerated orange peels. This creates a silky, sophisticated and sun-kissed Tequila that delivers honey, agave syrup, citrus and spice. A flawless and fruity new favourite to pour as the sun sets on another perfect day.
Sip Primavera neat alongside the Yucatán-speciality cochinita pibil, mandarin orange salsa with blue corn chips, tacos al pastor to bring out the pineapple fruitiness, or a summery jicama and orange salad. Alternatively, mix it into a Palmavera cocktail by shaking 45ml of Primavera, 15ml of agave nectar and a dash of orange bitters, pouring it over ice and topping with 30ml of sparkling water and a slice of fresh orange. Think of this as Mexico’s answer to the Aperol Spritz.
No corners are cut in the production of this small-batch spirit. Made from 100% Blue Weber Agave, it’s ‘rested’ in American oak barrels for eight months, which is four times longer than the industry standard, and that’s before the second maturation in those rare wine barrels. Open that slender and elegant bottle of Primavera Reposado Tequila and golden moments are guaranteed.
Don Julio’s founder Don Julio González-Frausto Estrada began distilling at the tender age of 17. Honing his craft for almost 40 years at his La Primavera distillery in the highlands of Jalisco, he broke the mould of this drink being considered a fire water for farmers and now most historians and aficionados recognise his as the first ever luxury Tequila.
