Dos Artes Calavera Limited Edition Anejo Tequila 2023

The Calavera is Dos Artes' most-hunted bottle — a hand-painted skull decanter released once a year around Día de los Muertos — and the 2023 edition holds the house añejo. Dos Artes means two arts — the tequila and the bottle — and every liter ceramic is hand-painted by Mexican artisans over a three-day process, so no two are alike; Wooden Cork notes the Calavera editions are particularly sought after by enthusiasts and art collectors alike. Inside the 2023 skull is the Añejo: 100% estate-grown Jalisco blue Weber agave, slow-cooked, double-distilled, aged nearly three years in bourbon casks, and bottled at 40% ABV in the numbered, hand-painted one-liter skull; check your bottle for the edition's count. The house describes its añejo as rich, intense, and slightly smoky with an undertone of pepper; Total Wine calls it very sweet and floral with vanilla, caramel, and oak. Expect a nose of vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak with cooked agave, opening into a rich, sweet palate of butterscotch, oak, and gentle spice with a smooth, warm finish. Honest note: the skull is the product — collectors buy the Calavera for the ceramic and drink the añejo as a bonus, and each year's edition sells out and appreciates. Neat, on a big cube, on the altar. The 2023 skull.
