Alma Miel is classified as a Joven tequila. The Spanish word “Joven” translates to “young”. Joven tequila is made from a blend of unaged and aged tequilas.
Continuing Don Julio González’s legacy of living Por Amor to craft only the exceptional, Tequila Don Julio pays homage to the heart and soul of tequila with the introduction of Tequila Don Julio Alma Miel, a blend of Blanco tequila distilled with oven-roasted agave honey and Añejo tequila which has been aged for at least 14 months and finished in Crémant du Limoux barrels. The result is an extraordinary tequila with slightly sweet notes of agave honey, spiced orchard fruit, creamy caramel, and rich roasted agave creating a lusciously smooth sipping tequila. Best enjoyed in its purest form, neat or on the rocks.
Alma Miel translates to "soul honey," and that phrase could hardly be a more fitting description of this luxury tequila from the legendary Don Julio. This latest, much-anticipated release is a sophisticated blend of blanco tequila and a touch of añejo, that – in a canny bit of innovation – incorporates naturally-occurring agave honeys into the distillation. There's no loss of either power or depth, but the lightness and charm will keep you coming back to this one again and again.
