Patron Tequila Añejo
The best flavor develops slowly and naturally. That’s why from the start we’ve made tequila the hard way – never taking shortcuts and using only high-quality raw ingredients to develop deep, complex flavors. Agave ripens slowly: Every eight or so years. So our skilled Jimadors take great care to find and uproot only those Weber Blue Agave with optimal sugar content. Using a sharp tool called a Coa, they strip away the leaves to reveal the heart of the plant, the piña.
After being hand-chopped, our piñas are baked in small brick ovens to ensure they’re cooked evenly. Then, they’re crushed by a two-ton volcanic stone Tahona wheel and a roller mill. In fact, Patrón has more working Tahonas than any other tequila producer in the world. The tequila itself may be the most obvious element in our craft story, but in Mexico, each signature bottle of Patrón is measured and molded to perfection.
Our entire tequila-making process takes place at Hacienda Patrón, where we only make Patrón. And we take pride in everything about it. From our eco-friendly reverse osmosis irrigation system to the agave byproduct we recycle. And most importantly, in the people involved in making our tequila – 60 hands from beginning to end.
Patrón Añejo is handcrafted from the finest 100% Weber Blue Agave and is carefully distilled in small batches at Hacienda Patrón distillery in Jalisco, Mexico. It’s then aged for over 12 months in a combination of French oak, Hungarian oak and used American whiskey barrels.
