Few tequilas are made with the same attention to detail as Patrón. A little more than 100 distilleries produce more than 2,000 tequila brands, but at Hacienda Patrón (NOM 1492), located in the heart of Jalisco, the focus is on perfecting one brand and nothing else.
Patrón tequilas include options for sipping as well as options for improving your cocktails. Some are good for both. Take, for example, Patrón Reposado, an ultra-premium tequila that seamlessly blends into bold cocktails, like the Patrón Reposado Spicy Margarita. Handcrafted from the finest Blue Weber agave and carefully distilled in small batches at Hacienda Patrón, the brand’s tequilas are made with only three natural ingredients: water, agave, and yeast. The reposado is then aged for at least four months in a variety of barrels.
The fresh agave notes found in Patrón Reposado receive a hint of oak from this resting period. The flavor mirrors the agave-forward aromas, with additional notes of fruit, citrus, and honey leading into a light floral and vanilla finish.
Patrón Reposado has a unique flavor that plays well with intense ingredients, such as slices of fresh jalapeño. The Patrón Reposado Spicy Margarita is smooth, balanced, and has intriguing flavors to enjoy with every sip.
