Breaking News - Don Julio 1942 Year of the Snake is Dropping!

Xīn nián kuài lè! Sun nin fai lok! If you can believe it, 2025 is nearly upon us and that means special releases, limited edition bottles, and amazingly intricate designs. If you're more of a tequila drinker though, you may feel a bit left out with whiskies, Scotches, and cognacs being represented each Lunar New Year. But fear not all you agave lovers, for this year of twenty and twenty five heralds forth a groundbreaking release from Don Julio 1942! You read that correctly dear readers, Don Julio is now offering a gorgeously designed bottle to celebrate the New Year celebrated in the far east!

Why the Lunar New Year is So Enjoyable

Western New Year celebrations are based on the solar calendar, hence the booze-filled parties always fall on December 31st/January 1st. But the Lunar New Year is unique in that the celebrations fall on a different day each year due to it being based on the lunar calendar. Unpredictable is fun, right? But it gets better, the celebrations held each winter don't last for just one single night, but rather SEVEN or more consecutive days of eating, drinking, eating, and more drinking. Add in fireworks, family, friends, cool decorations, an animal (or mythical creature) theme, and you've got a recipe for a ridiculously fun holiday.

Now that tequila has jumped aboard, us folks living in just two seasons (dry and less dry) can enjoy a taste of the LNY with a drink more appropriate to our area. And if you're not residing in SoCal, jump aboard the tequila buzz and give this brand new release a try! Here's why:
