Maestro DOBEL Tequila Releases 15 Mexican Made Cocktail Kits
One of Mexico’s fastest-growing premium tequilas, Maestro DOBEL, sales of which have increased by 94% in two years in the UK alone, unveiled a collaboration with Mexican craft curators, Revolution of Forms (founded by former Head of Design at Christie’s Rafaella Goffredi).
Experimenting with glass and marble, Mexican designer Liliana Ovalle has created a limited edition ‘Encuentros’ cocktail mixing kit to reflect the process which Maestro DOBEL uses to turn agave into their multi-aged Cristalino and smoked tequilas, Diamante and Humito.
The Encuentros jigger is made from South Mexican Negro del Sur marble from Guerrero, Chiapas and was hand-carved by a family of eight brothers, while Encuentros Glass Mixing Jar – formed from smoky, black ombré glass, mirrors how the tequila leaves the jug on pouring and nods to the hot ovens which bake the agave. Finally, Encuentros Glass Stirrer – inspired by the coa, being a special hoe used for harvesting agave, is tipped with silver.
Just fifteen sets are available as an exclusive from Harvey Nichols (£275).
