Maestro Dobel 50 '1968' Extra Anejo Tequila
Maestro Dobel 50 '1968' Extra Anejo Tequila opens the 50 Anniversary Series — an 80-proof (40% ABV) extra añejo in a 750mL hand-painted collectible bottle. Made from 100% Blue Weber agave grown twelve years on a single-family estate in Jalisco's lowlands (NOM 1122), it ages a minimum of seven years in American oak, then finishes in Armagnac barrels from France: honey, dried fruit, chocolate, and tobacco with a long, smooth sweetness and a slightly bitter, exquisite aftertaste. Order it online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

1968: The Armagnac Finish
The 50 Anniversary Series marks Maestro Dobel's milestone with one release per year, each finished in a different storied cask. The 1968 edition takes seven-year extra añejo and marries it to Armagnac — France's oldest brandy — layering honey and dried fruit over the tequila's roasted-agave core.

Tasting Notes
Honey, dried fruit, chocolate, and tobacco on the nose; smooth and sweet on the palate with long barrel-aged depth; a slightly bitter yet exquisite aftertaste (per the brand).
How to Enjoy
Neat in a proper tasting glass — a collector's tequila at this age deserves nothing else. Keep the hand-painted bottle on display long after the pour.
