Padre Azul Super Premium Tequila Anejo Especial Edition Dia De Los Muertos 2021 Tequila

Padre Azul

750 ml | 40% ABV
Tequila | Anejo

The Mexican Día de los Muertos – Day of the Dead – is a unique celebration of life and death, of eternal friendship, and the memory of those who have been lost. For several days, Mexico is transformed into an explosion of color and light: bright orange flowers, colorful decoration, candlelight... and the streets are full of ‘Catrinas’ – people dressed up as skeletons, with artfully painted faces in the style of the elegant skull ‘Calavera Catrina’.

Padre Azul wants to pay tribute to this wonderful tradition: From now on, we will honor the Day of the Dead with a limited special edition. We proudly present: the Día de los Muertos Limited Edition 2021.

High-end Tequila as a limited special edition

The Limited Edition 2021 definitely lives up to the Día de los Muertos: Tequila Añejo at its finest, 100% blue agave, matured for 18 months in hand-selected oak barrels, coming in a unique bottle designed by the Mexican artist José Parra. This limited special edition is a feast – for the eyes and the palate.

The artist: José Parra

The Mexican José Parra was born into a family of artists. That’s how he discovered his love for art and his own talent already at a young age. He immersed himself in the world of art at the Art Students League of New York, studied at the School of Arts at the University of Guadalajara, joined the atelier of Carlos Vargas Pons and the Studio Gallery Parrech, and also learned about the art of marketing at the ITESO University in Guadalajara. The work of José Parra has been published in various books in Mexico, the US, and Europe.

His paintings have been exhibited in Canada, the US, Germany, France, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands, Poland, Colombia and South Korea. Since 2014 he has organized the exhibition ‘Lotería Mexicana’ together with the French group ’Libellule’ and the Black Coffee Foundation. He is also involved the projects “El Mural del Milenio” and “El Arte del Vino” of MILENIO Arte, and he is the creator of a striking portrait of Fernando del Paso, painted for the National College in Mexico City.

The motif:
Catrina de Velas from José Parra

The artwork ‘Catrina de Velas’ from José Parra shows the Day of the Dead’s most ubiquitous symbol: the famous Calavera Catrina, a traditional Mexican character based on the artwork of José Guadalupe Posada from the early 20th century. On the Day of the Dead, people in Mexico paint their faces to resemble this iconic skull.

But José Parra’s Catrina holds a secret: Is she really one of the many who celebrate the Day of the Dead dressed up as Catrina? Or could it be the real Catrina hiding behind the elegant costume, looking at the list of those who will be her guests on the Day of the Dead, in the flickering light of the candles, each candle representing the life of one guest? The answer is only known by José Parra, born in Guadalajara and artist behind this mesmerizing artwork.

A WORLD CLASS GIN, MADE IN AFRICA

Using botanicals plucked from the Baobab tree of life, our African sourced botanicals bring our range of premium gins to life, with a refreshing & subtly sweet African citrus flavor. Bayab, is a gin that breathes life into every occasion.

A BEAUTIFULLY TASTING GIN FROM THE HEART OF KWAZULU-NATAL

What better way to breathe life into the world of gin, than creating an award winning gin, with a botanical plucked from the tree of life? Bayab’s story begins on the terrains of Africa where the Baobab tree of life grows. This legendary tree provides shelter, water and produces the Baobab fruit, the botanical that gives our gins their refreshingly sweet citrus flavour. 

BOTANICALS FROM BAOBAB TREE OF LIFE

The baobab fruit grows on the baobab tree, which is native to the African savannah. The baobab tree is one of the most iconic trees found on earth and is otherwise known as the ‘tree of life’. The Baobab is not just a tree, it’s the focal point of communities, the source of nourishment and the provider of shelter.

It is found in 32 countries across Africa and can live up to 5000 years and reach over 30 meters high and 50 meters in circumference. You may even recognise it as the tree that Rafiki calls home in Disney’s Lion King and in the Avatar too!

AN IRRESISTIBLE BOTANICAL BLEND.

The baobab fruit’s tangy sherbet taste is complemented with bountiful African botanicals of Juniper berries, Coriander, Rosemary, Cinnamon, Coarse Salt, Lemon Peel, and Orange Peel, it’s then blended with the purest water from the Midlands of KwaZulu-Natal. This dazzling combination creates refreshing citrus flavored gins that invigorate and delight with every sip.

A Classic Dry, with an African twist. The infusion of Zambian Baobab, Juniper berries, Coriander, Rosemary, Cinnamon and Coarse Salt, gives this gin a bold burst of fresh African citrus that delights the tastebuds.
