Don Fulano Imperial Tequila Extra Anejo 750mL
Don Fulano Imperial Tequila Extra Añejo
Extra Añejo Tequila | 40% ABV (80 Proof) | 750 mL | Jalisco, Mexico | 100% Blue Weber Agave | NOM 1146
Process & Profile
Don Fulano Imperial Extra Añejo is the top-tier, long-aged expression from Don Fulano, built for slow sipping and special-occasion pours. It’s crafted from 100% Blue Weber agave and created by the Fonseca family at NOM 1146. Imperial is matured for a minimum of 5 years in European/French oak (often described as French oak sourced from notable wine regions), then finished in Oloroso sherry casks to add layered dried-fruit richness and a deeper, more luxurious finish. Many references also note the blend can include extra-aged parcels as old as 12 years, giving it additional depth and mature oak polish.
In the glass, it leans elegant and dessert-leaning—dark fruit, toffee, and chocolate notes framed by warm spice and a refined oak backbone. This is the kind of extra añejo that appeals to both premium tequila collectors and whiskey drinkers who love sherry influence.

How to Enjoy
