Don Fulano Imperial
Don Fulano Imperial is an extra añejo tequila that is matured for a minimum of five years and finished in oloroso sherry casks. It is made by the Fonseca family, fifth-generation agave farmers and distillers in Atotonilco, Mexico, who are dedicated to crafting the highest-quality agave spirits with total transparency. This bottling exemplifies the Fonsecas’ tequila-making expertise, balancing the terroir of the Highlands with the layered complexities of flavour that develop through maturation. The oldest expression in the Don Fulano range, it showcases all the richness and nuances of a finely aged agave spirit – elegant, powerful, rich, dark, and fruity.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Dark, rich and fruity, with long-aged flavours of coffee and raisins accompanied by big oak and agave spice – cinnamon, clove and soft nutmeg.
Palate
Opulent, with fruity dark chocolate, sticky maraschino cherries and spicy leathery notes to start. Behind that initial hit are softer vanilla notes and sweet nuts.
Finish
Very long, focusing on sweet agave before descending into dark cocoa and stewed fruit.
Comment
For those who like aged Tequila, this is the pinnacle of the Don Fulano range. Rich and decadent, but still packed with agave spice, sweetness and complexity.
