Frequently asked questions

Which Don Londrés tequila is best for cocktails?

Don Londrés Blanco is the most versatile mixer. Its bright agave character shines in Palomas, Margaritas and Tequila Sunrises. Reposado adds gentle oak depth to a Margarita or Old Fashioned.

What is the best tequila for a smooth Margarita?

A 100% agave tequila made with nothing added beyond agave and time, like Don Londrés Reposado. The slow-distilled spirit balances lime and agave syrup without a harsh burn.

Can I sip Don Londrés neat?

Yes. Don Londrés is made as a sipping tequila. Pour 1.5 oz at room temperature in a tequila glass and enjoy it slowly.

What is the difference between Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo?

Blanco is unaged and pure agave. Reposado rests in American oak barrels for several months, gaining subtle vanilla and caramel notes. Añejo is aged longer for a richer, more complex profile ideal for sipping.

How should I store an opened bottle of tequila?

Keep it upright at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, and tightly sealed. Don Londrés keeps its character for many months once opened.
