Product Description

Don Cayo Ceramic Green Añejo Tequila: A Special Edition Añejo in a Hand-Decorated Bottle

Don Cayo Ceramic Green Añejo Tequila takes one of Jalisco’s long-running family tequilas and puts it in a bottle meant to be kept. This special edition is a tall, slender green ceramic bottle with vibrant Mexican-style patterns in green, orange, black, and white, and it’s one of several ceramic colors in the Don Cayo line. It’s the kind of bottle that works as a centerpiece on a bar cart, a gift for a milestone, or a collector’s addition. The tequila inside is a real añejo, made from 100% Blue Weber agave and bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof).

About Don Cayo

Don Cayo traces its roots to 1954, when Don Cayetano González set out to make tequila the artisanal way, infused with the essence of Mexico. It’s produced in El Arenal, in the Valley of Tequila in Jalisco, from agave grown in the surrounding lowlands. The brand covers the full range, from blanco and reposado up to a five-year extra añejo, and it’s a name tequila fans know for approachable, sweet, oak-forward tequilas.

How Don Cayo Añejo Is Made

Don Cayo’s agave is cooked in traditional stone and clay ovens, processed with a roller mill, and distilled twice in stainless steel pot stills. The aged expressions get their signature flavors from rest in French white oak. The brand’s Añejo is aged well beyond the one-year minimum for the category, which gives it its golden color and the toffee and caramel character Don Cayo is known for.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Golden amber.

Nose: Sweet toffee and caramel mixed with touches of toasted agave and light toasted wood.

Palate: Herbal nuances with an intense agave flavor, rich caramel, toasted oak, and cooked agave.

Finish: Smooth and satisfying, with lingering sweet oak and agave.

Reviewers often describe Don Cayo Añejo as a sweet, creamy, dessert-like sipper rather than a sharp or astringent one, with caramel, vanilla, and oak leading.

Food Pairings

The toffee and caramel in an añejo pair well with grilled steak, carne asada, and slow-roasted pork. It also goes with dark chocolate, flan, tres leches, and churros. Aged cheeses and roasted nuts are good matches too, and it’s a classic after-dinner pour with coffee.

Serving Suggestions

Sip it neat in a tulip glass, or on the rocks, which is how the brand recommends enjoying its añejo. It also works in a tequila Old Fashioned, where the toffee and oak stand in for bourbon. Keep the ceramic bottle after it’s empty as a display piece.
