On Sunday, July 24, grab some limes, salt and Maestro Dobel Tequila, and celebrate National Tequila Day!
Late last year, I had the pleasure of attending a Maestro Dobel Tequila Pairing Dinner at Bagatelle Miami. At this epic feast I was introduced to Maestro Dobel Tequila’s Diamanté label, the world’s first multi-aged crystal clear tequila.
The smooth Diamanté is a blend of Extra-Anejo, Anejo and Reposado Tequila, that has been aged in European oak barrels and double filtered to produce a crystal clear liquid. All Dobel Tequila blends are 100% Agave, and produced on a single estate in Mexico’s volcanic Jalisco region, where it’s distilled in small batches.
In honor of National Tequila Day, here are some festive Maestro Dobel recipes to get your drink on, and the party started!
