Mandala Dia de los Muertos La Catrina Limited Edition Anejo Tequila 2025
Mandala Dia de los Muertos La Catrina Limited Edition Anejo Tequila 2025 is one half of the 2025 "Life After Death" release: a 1L individually hand-painted ceramic bottle of 80-proof (40% ABV) añejo tequila — and it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
La Catrina — the eternal muse of Día de Muertos, adorned here with vibrant marigolds — represents remembrance and eternal love, and her design interlocks with the companion El Jimador bottle through skeletal hands. Inside is Mandala's standard añejo: 100% Blue Weber agave from the Highlands of Jalisco, slow-cooked in brick ovens, double-distilled in copper stills, non-chill filtered and additive-free, aged over 14 months in French oak barrels per the official 2025 copy.
Tasting notes: toasted French oak, sweet cooked agave, and warm spice layers on the nose; creamy caramel, vanilla, honeyed oak, dried fruit, and soft cinnamon on the palate; a long, smooth finish of residual sweetness and gentle fruity warmth.
Why buy La Catrina? Because Mandala's Day of the Dead bottles are the most giftable tequilas on the market — a genuine hand-painted ceramic decanter around a serious French-oak añejo. Browse the anejo tequila collection, the tequila collection, and the Mandala brand collection.
Serving note: neat in a copita; the ceramic bottle keeps its cool — a striking holiday table centerpiece.
