Dos Artes Calavera Doble Barrica Extra Añejo Tequila is a double-barrel-aged, ultra-premium tequila from Jalisco, Mexico, crafted for sippers who want maximum depth and richness in their glass. This Extra Añejo expression spends extended time maturing across two distinct barrels, layering flavors of cooked agave, caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, dried fruit, and warming spice. At 1L and bottled in a jaw-dropping Calavera-inspired ceramic decanter, this is as much a showpiece as it is a serious sipping tequila.
Dos Artes has built a reputation for pairing exceptional agave spirits with hand-painted, artist-crafted ceramic vessels, turning every release into a genuine piece of Mexican folk art. The Doble Barrica series takes that philosophy a step further, using a secondary barrel-aging process to build extra complexity beyond what a standard Extra Añejo delivers. Each decanter is individually sculpted and hand-painted, meaning no two bottles look exactly alike, which is part of why collectors and tequila lovers alike keep coming back to this brand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Dos Artes Calavera Doble Barrica good for sipping neat?
Yes, this Extra Añejo tequila is built specifically for neat sipping thanks to its extended double-barrel aging, which brings out deep caramel, vanilla, and oak notes best enjoyed slowly in a snifter or tequila glass.
What makes the Doble Barrica different from a standard Extra Añejo?
The Doble Barrica undergoes a secondary barrel-aging process on top of the standard Extra Añejo maturation, adding an extra layer of oak, spice, and dried-fruit complexity that sets it apart from single-barrel expressions.
Is this bottle worth the price for the ceramic decanter alone?
Many collectors buy Dos Artes bottles specifically for the hand-painted, sculpted Calavera decanter, so you're getting both a genuine art piece and a rich, well-aged tequila in one purchase.
How should I store this tequila once opened?
Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight, just as you would any aged spirit, to preserve its caramel, vanilla, and oak character over time.
Is this a good gift for a tequila or Halloween/Día de los Muertos lover?
Absolutely, the skull-inspired ceramic artwork combined with a genuinely rich Extra Añejo tequila makes this one of the more memorable gift options for agave spirit enthusiasts, especially around fall holidays.
