The Story
100% estate-grown blue weber agave. A hand-painted ceramic bottle that rivals Clase Azul's for artistry. And a 1-liter format that makes it one of the most generous premium tequila purchases available.
Dos Artes — "two arts" — takes its name from the dual craft at the heart of the brand: the art of tequila making and the art of the hand-painted ceramic bottle. Both are taken seriously. The agave is grown on the brand's own estate in Jalisco, harvested at peak maturity, and slow-cooked in traditional ovens before distillation. The tequila is then aged in oak to produce a smooth, slightly sweet extra añejo with the kind of approachable depth that makes it equally compelling for sipping and sharing.
The bottle is the other half of the proposition. Each ceramic decanter is individually hand-painted by Mexican artisans with intricate folk art imagery — no two are identical. The 1-liter format means you get significantly more tequila than a standard 750ml, in a vessel that will anchor any bar or collection long after the last pour.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Warm amber with good viscosity.
- Aroma: Cooked agave, vanilla, light caramel, and a gentle herbal note. Clean and inviting.
- Palate: Smooth and slightly sweet — cooked agave sweetness up front, transitioning into vanilla, light oak, and a subtle fruit character. Approachable and well-balanced.
- Finish: Medium-length, warm, and clean — a gentle oak spice fading into a smooth close.
The Hand-Painted Ceramic Bottle
Every Dos Artes bottle is hand-painted by artisans in Mexico using traditional folk art techniques. The imagery draws from Mexican cultural iconography — vibrant, detailed, and entirely unique to each bottle. Like Clase Azul, the ceramic decanter is designed to be kept and displayed. Unlike most premium tequila bottles, the 1-liter format means the display piece comes with a third more tequila.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How does Dos Artes compare to Clase Azul? Both brands lead with a hand-painted ceramic bottle and estate-grown agave. Clase Azul Reposado is aged 8 months and is the more widely recognized name. Dos Artes Extra Añejo is aged longer, comes in a 1-liter format, and tends to be more accessible in price. For collectors who want the hand-painted ceramic experience with more tequila and a lower entry point, Dos Artes is the natural comparison.
- Why is the 1-liter format significant? Most premium tequilas — including Clase Azul and Don Julio Real — come in 750ml. The Dos Artes 1-liter gives you an additional 250ml in the same hand-painted ceramic decanter, making it one of the best volume-to-presentation ratios in the premium tequila category.
- Is the Dos Artes ceramic bottle reusable? Yes — the hand-painted ceramic decanter is fully functional as a display piece, vase, or decanter after the tequila is finished. The folk art painting is sealed and durable.
- What does extra añejo mean? Extra añejo is the highest age classification in tequila, requiring a minimum of three years of oak barrel maturation. Beyond that minimum, distilleries can age as long as they choose. The extended time in oak develops caramel, vanilla, and dried fruit complexity that distinguishes extra añejo from younger reposado and añejo expressions.
