Los Azulejos Anejo Tequila Picasso Masterpiece Collection Yellow
Los Azulejos Anejo Tequila Picasso Masterpiece Collection Yellow is a collector's piece that happens to drink beautifully: a 40% ABV (80 proof), 750mL 100% blue agave añejo, aged in premium oak barrels, presented in a hand-painted bottle inspired by Pablo Picasso's work. Each bottle is hand-decorated by Mexican artisans in Puebla — home of Talavera pottery — so no two are identical. The tequila inside shows luscious chocolate, orange, and sugar with subtle pepper and pineapple and a sweet, long finish. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Picasso, Pourable
The Masterpiece Collection began in 2009 as a limited-edition collector series, with six paintings inspired by Picasso's work — arguably the most recognizable painter of the 20th century — rendered in Talavera style on both sides of every bottle. The Yellow edition is one of the six. Behind the art is a serious añejo tequila: patiently oak-rested, smooth, and aromatic, designed for sipping long after the bottle earns its place on the shelf.
Tasting Notes
Yeasty and briny on first opening; with air, peppers and pineapple emerge. The mid-palate showcases luscious chocolate, orange, and sugar-cookie sweetness with subtle pepper. The aftertaste is sweet, sugary, and notably long and warming.
How to Enjoy
Sip neat at room temperature in a copita or Glencairn — this is a display bottle that rewards slow drinking. It also makes a memorable gift for art lovers and tequila collectors. Keep the empty bottle; the hand-painted artwork is permanent decor.
