Thomas Rhett and his cousin, Jeff Worn, just unveiled the third release in their tequila collection, Dos Primos Añejo. The country music star started his agave brand back in January of 2021 with the launch of a blanco, then, in February 2022, added a reposado to the line.
Made from hand-harvested 100% blue agave sourced from estates in Los Altos and the valley area of Jalisco, Mexico, Dos Primos Tequila Añejo matured in used bourbon barrels for a minimum of 13 months. Shaded a bright amber, the bottling notes of brown spices, dried fruit, and caramel on the palate.
“Bringing Dos Primos to life initially with our Blanco tequila, then with Reposado and now Añejo, has been an incredible journey,” said Thomas Rhett. “Our Añejo is a super-smooth and flavorful tequila that can be enjoyed year-round, and we can’t wait for everyone to enjoy it with their friends and family.”
Dos Primos is distilled at Destiladora Gonzalez Lux, located just outside the city of Arandas, Mexico, in the highlands of Jalisco. Rodolfo Gonzalez, a third-generation master distiller at Destiladora Gonzalez Lux, worked with the two cousins to create all three of the brand’s releases.
“Great care and attention have gone into crafting Dos Primos Tequila, with each variant bringing its own unique flavor and richness to the palate,” said Gonzalez. “Dos Primos Añejo continues that tradition. The Añejo expression is nothing short of superb, and it’s sure to be enjoyed by those who appreciate fine aged tequila.”
The Añejo is packaged in a clear embossed-glass, corked bottle and features a black-leather cord wrapped around the neck. The fabric label is hand-applied in Mexico and bears the signatures of Worn and Thomas Rhett.
“It seems like only yesterday when Thomas Rhett and I decided to create the kind of tequila we wanted to drink and share with our family and friends,” said Worn. “Now, we have our third Dos Primos Tequila – a delicious Añejo – and I couldn’t be more proud of it and how far this brand has come in the past four years.”
Dos Primos Tequila Añejo is priced at $54.99 per 750 ml bottle and will hit stores in March. For more information or to find a retailer, head over to the brand’s official website.
