Product Information

Dan Aykroyd was importing Patron Tequila to Canada but didn’t own a dime of the company. Who owns Patron? Patrón Tequila has announced the launch of its latest ultra-premium range with the limited release of Patrón Ahumado Silver and Reposado. Overall, they are overpriced and offer little value for the money, making Patron a competent but far from great Tequila brand. Patron Tequila: Buying Guide Like everyone’s favorite, and inevitable ex-girlfriend, Patrón was born in 1989. We don’t know how many celebrity hearts it’s broken, or whether it and Jake Gyllenhaal are still on good terms, but the brand, like Swift, has likely led to more than a few tales of heartbreak. Patrón production is surprisingly old-school.

My education and training include a thorough knowledge of agave spirits creation from planting agaves to bottling, including distillation. Yes, there is a sprawling, gorgeous Hacienda Patrón, home to the distillery and La Casona, a year-old private guesthouse that kind of looks like the residence of a James Bond villain. But Patrón actually prides itself on moderation. According to the company, a mere 60 hands go into the production of every bottle (which is actually a small number considering production levels), and a mere “ eight families provide 80 to 95%” of Patrón’s agave plants. Patrón is kind of like Bordeaux.Patrón Ahumado Silver and Reposado are made from agave piñas roasted in small batches with mesquite charcoal for seven days in underground stone pits at Hacienda Patrón in Jalisco, Mexico. They are then crushed through a 100% tahona wheel distillation process. Roca Silver is ultimately a fairly subtle and understated tequila. While it’s not very complex, it doesn’t seem to be designed to be. Roca Silver Tequila is all about presenting agave in a way that’s decidedly light, dry, and delicate. It’s a radical departure from Patron’s classic Silver, but that’s not a bad thing. With Roca Silver, Patron has produced something that is clearly designed to be sipped neat or over ice and exist in a similar space as Casamigos and perhaps even Casa Dragones Tequila.

Here, I’m not just sharing opinions; I’m weaving tales from the rich tapestry of my experiences over these three decades. To avoid this, consuming an open bottle within one or two years is recommended, mainly when the liquid is 25% or less.Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA.

To maintain the best flavor, storing Tequila properly and consuming open bottles within a reasonable time frame is essential. What does Patron mean? Patron Lalique is an Extra Añejo Tequila aged eight years in American, French, and Spanish sherry oak. The two new serves were handcrafted with Tequila and Mezcal enthusiasts in mind, Patrón has said in a press release. They have been distilled using 100% Weber Blue Agave and an innovative production process. Tequila used to be made with something called the ancient Tahona process, wherein heartless tequila distillers force a donkey to drag a massive volcanic stone over agave hearts prior to cooking and distilling them. (We assume that donkey hates his life.) Patrón still goes old-school, although they give the donkeys a break and use machinery to drag massive, specially sculpted stones across their agave hearts, yielding a unique vegetal taste that they then mix with a portion of citrusy tequila made with the modern Roller Mill method. You have one guy to thank for that smooth, smooth balance. Patrón Tequilas, like all tequilas, are produced in Mexico from the "corazon" (heart or core) of the blue agave plant. [1] Everything including the barrels, corks, and bottles are handcrafted at their distilleries.When it comes to premium tequila, there’s no brand more dominant than Patron. The brand singlehandedly revolutionized the tequila segment, converting American drinkers from cheap, fiery mixto tequila to premium tequila made from 100% agave. Now, with literally hundreds of offerings in the premium tequila space, it’s hard to imagine a time when a liquor store might carry just a handful of brands. In the intervening years, Patron has expanded their offerings through innovation. At the lower end they’ve introduced a line of tequila-based coffee and chocolate liqueurs under the Patron XO Cafe brand, which has been effective at attracting new drinkers to the brand. At the same time, Patron has explored the upper reaches of the ultra-premium market with their Gran Patron line, which has helped attract high end consumers in search for luxury spirits. The late Francisco Alcaraz was the Master Distiller and blender running the show behind the scenes. Co-founder Martin Crowley designed the logo, which — and we seriously never noticed this — has a hornet on the label. That’s because before he got heavy into tequila, Crowley served in the Navy on the massive USS Hornet aircraft carrier. It’s a mega brand with some unexpectedly small-business vibes. Piedra Tequila gets its name from the Spanish word for stone, as it is made by crushing blue agaves with a two-ton Tahona stone, a traditional method also used in Mezcal production, preserving the agave’s sweet flavor. Use an old-fashioned glass and a Glencairn for Piedra and Burdeos; even a wine glass makes a better choice.
