SUMMER ’21: TEQUILA DON JULIO IS ALL IN

Introducing Tequila Don Julio Primavera – Meant to Hit Shelves in Spring 2022, But We Just Couldn’t Wait

NEW YORK, NY, July 29, 2021 – This summer has already been filled with celebrations and there’s still more to look forward to. Tequila Don Julio knows that no truly epic party is complete without great tequila and has pulled out all of the stops to ensure that summer 2021 gets the tequila that it deserves. Originally slated for spring 2022, the brand is releasing an extremely limited quantity of the new Tequila Don Julio Primavera – a deliciously smooth expression that takes Tequila Don Julio’s traditional Reposado and finishes it in orange wine casks for a sophisticated, silky taste that whispers citrus but screams “let’s party!”

“This summer has been bursting with a resurgence of celebrations and there’s nothing we like more at Tequila Don Julio than a great party, which is why we are so thrilled to be able to introduce Tequila Don Julio Primavera earlier than planned,” says Christina Choi, Senior Vice President of Tequila, Diageo North America. “There are only 15,000 cases available now, but don’t worry if you can’t find it this year – just as the name suggests, Tequila Don Julio Primavera will be back for our originally scheduled launch in spring 2022.”

Tequila Don Julio Primavera is meticulously crafted to ensure liquid perfection that honors the legacy of Don Julio González’s innovative spirit and is on par with the existing unparalleled portfolio. Featuring a flawless balance of notes including honeyed agave, a hint of spice and a light, citrus finish, Tequila Don Julio Primavera is best enjoyed on the rocks or in the signature Primavera Sunset cocktail with club soda and a cara cara orange wedge.
