El Tesoro Mundial: Yamazaki Edition Tequila

El Tesoro de Don Felipe Tequila just unveiled the newest installment of its premium, limited-edition cask-finished series, “The Mundial Collection.” In collaboration with The House of Suntory, both introduce El Tesoro Mundial: Yamazaki Edition.

El Tesoro Mundial: Yamazaki Edition brings together three masters of distilling: Carlos and Jenny Camarena, the former and newly appointed master distillers of El Tesoro, and Shinji Fukuyo, The House of Suntory’s fifth-generation chief blender, according to the brand.

“It is our greatest honor to share this opportunity with our friend Shinji Fukuyo-san and the team at The House of Suntory,” said Jenny Camarena in a news release. “Our Mundial Collection is one of the most exciting projects at La Alteña. Each time we release a new one, we show another way tequila can take the shape of something new that can express ideas and flavors one would never expect. My brother Carlos began working on the Yamazaki Edition years ago, and it’s been my pleasure to see it come to its final stage. We are so excited to bring a united piece of Mexico and Japan distilling and blending excellence to our fans.”

Mundial Yamazaki Edition is an El Tesoro Añejo, according to the brand, aged for 12 months in authentic Yamazaki 12-Year-Old Japanese sherry and wine casks, adding notes of red berries and warm spices. As a special one-time release, this is the first and only time El Tesoro has been rested in Yamazaki casks.

El Tesoro Mundial: Yamazaki Edition has an SRP of $199.99 and comes in at 42% ABV, according to the brand.
