If you're looking for an even deeper flavor, Patrón Añejo might be the bottle for you. Añejo means "aged," and this tequila is aged for 12 months in a combination of French oak, Hungarian oak, and used American whiskey barrels. This maturation process imparts a rich, golden color and a flavor profile that is a delightful blend of oak, honey, and vanilla layered over the core agave and citrus notes. It’s an incredibly exciting time to be in the tequila business – we are thrilled to see consumer demand for tequila continuing to explode around the world,” Mauricio Vergara said. When it comes to storage, temperature is key. You should aim to keep your tequila in a dark place at room temperature or slightly cooler; a cabinet or a liquor cellar away from any heat sources is ideal. Avoid storing your tequila near appliances that generate heat and definitely keep it out of the fridge. Contrary to what some might think, you should never put tequila in the freezer as refrigeration can actually dull the flavors of your tequila. If you’re not familiar, Patrón XO Cafe is a 35% abv dry coffee liqueur made with Patrón Silver Tequila. This includes Patrón Silver, Patrón Reposado and Patrón Añejo, which he said need to be their “top priority”.

Tequila is seeing rapid growth and incredible momentum – not just in the United States, but it is the second-fastest-growing category in value across the globe,” he continued.

Rum Punch : Original And Upgraded Recipe

Patrón builds long-term relationships with experienced agave farmers to source the best Blue Weber agave. They employ skilled jimadores to harvest the agave piñas, the plant's core from which tequila is made. Precise harvesting techniques remove waxes and chlorophyll that can lead to bitterness. While more labor-intensive, it is said to optimize the agave quality used in production. The handcrafted process continues through distillation and aging in previously used American whiskey barrels. At the moment, demand for Tequila is increasing, which is why it makes financial sense for Patrón to focus on its ultra-premium tequilas.
