Known for his bold silhouettes that blend Chicano culture with high-fashion tailoring, Willy Chavarria brings his unique style to the latest Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino Artist Edition Bottle, drawing from his roots and culture to shape every creative detail. Following the debut of the highly sought-after first Artist Edition that hit shelves last year, this newest iteration boldly features Chavarria's signature red rose imagery as a symbol of passion, resilience, and undying love with depictions of classic Mexican iconography adorned in some of Chavarria's signature looks including a flower hat, box cutter jacket, and his iconic Toluca and Cascada trousers commemorating the cherished Día de Muertos holiday.

"My partnership with Tequila Don Julio has grown naturally over the years, fueled by our shared passion for Mexican heritage and craftsmanship," says Chavarria. "The newest iteration of the Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino Artist Edition bottle reflects the evolution of our creative journey. Red roses, an iconic motif in my work, come alive across the design, embodying fidelity, undying love and the timeless beauty of Mexican culture."

In honor of the release, Chavarria is also bringing his artistic vision to the Willy Chavarria x Tequila Don Julio Cristalino Collection, a first-of-its-kind, hand-crafted jewelry line made in Mexico City and inspired by Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino. Each piece, polished in white gold and encrusted with diamond pavé and radiant crystals, reflects a modern tribute to Mexico through Chavarria's signature rose motif and intertwined serpents. The collection, featuring a necklace, ring, and cuff, will be available exclusively through an online auction on Charitybuzz with net proceeds from the three winning bids directly benefiting organizations that uplift Mexican and Hispanic creatives: the National Association of Latino Arts and Culture (NALAC) and Plataforma Arte Contemporáneo. Bidding will open on Sunday, November 2nd at 12pm Eastern Time in celebration of the Día de Muertos holiday.

"We are grateful to Tequila Don Julio and Willy Chavarria for supporting NALAC's mission to uplift Hispanic artists, art organizations, and cultural workers," said Mari Hernandez, Deputy Director at NALAC. "This collaboration helps ensure that future generations of Mexican and Hispanic creatives have the resources they need to thrive."

"At Plataforma, we believe in championing contemporary Mexican art and the voices that push culture forward," said José Noé Suro, Co-Founder of Plataforma Arte Contemporáneo. "With this incredible support from Tequila Don Julio and Willy Chavarría, we can continue fostering the talent and innovation that help define Mexico's creative landscape."

As part of Tequila Don Julio and Willy Chavarria's shared commitment to uplifting Mexican and Hispanic communities, an additional donation will be made to NALAC and Plataforma Arte Contemporáneo to further support emerging creatives through programs focused on leadership, professional development and long-term career sustainability.

"As a proudly Mexican brand, it's important for us to collaborate with partners who share our deep commitment to celebrating Mexican culture and its people," says Karen Harris, Senior Vice President of Agave, Diageo North America. "Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino is a reflection of our love for the art of tequila making and honors the spirit of our founder Don Julio González, who crafted his tequila Por Amor."

Each Artist Edition bottle features the same quality Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino liquid that tequila fans have come to love. Every bottle of Tequila Don Julio is crafted in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, using 100% Blue Weber Agave, as it has been since our founding in 1942. Aged for 18 months in American white oak barrels, Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino marries the rich complexities of a traditional A?ejo with the vibrant character of a Blanco. Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino was the first Cristalino innovation in the category and marked an evolution in luxury tequila. With a smooth character that features notes of vanilla, honey, and toasted oak, Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino is best enjoyed in cocktails, on the rocks or perfectly chilled to bring out its crisp flavor profile.

The Tequila Don Julio 70 A?ejo Cristalino Artist Edition bottle designed by Willy Chavarria will be available for an SRP of $69.99 for a 750ml bottle at select retailers nationwide and online at DonJulio.WillyChavarria.com while supplies last.
