What you will taste
Created for the 60th anniversary of Don Julio González's first distillery, 1942 became the bottle that taught the world to sip tequila slowly. Blue agave grown high in Jalisco, patient roasting, and long ageing in oak give warm vanilla, caramel and roasted agave sweetness with a silky finish. It arrives in its tall, sculpted bottle: instantly recognisable at any table.
The sommelier’s note
«Serve neat at room temperature in a tulip or snifter glass, no ice and no lime: this is sipping tequila in its purest form.»
How this wine opens up
From the first pour to the last glass — follow it through the evening.
The pour
Neat and unhurried
Pour a measure into a snifter and let it sit two minutes: the aromas need a moment to gather.
5 min · First sip
Vanilla warmth
Vanilla and caramel first, then roasted agave underneath. Small sips, long pauses.
20 min · The finish
Silk and smoke
The last sips turn silky with a faint oak smoke. This is why 1942 ends celebrations everywhere.
