How it is made

Patrón Añejo is made from 100% blue agave, which is harvested, cooked, and then fermented before being distilled. The aging process takes place in a combination of French and American oak barrels, allowing the tequila to develop its complex flavors over time.

History

Patrón was founded in 1989 by John Paul DeJoria and Martin Crowley, with the aim of producing the highest-quality tequila. The brand quickly gained recognition for its artisanal production methods and premium quality, and Patrón Añejo was introduced as part of their line of aged tequilas.

In cocktails

Bartenders often use Patrón Añejo in cocktails that require a richer flavor profile, such as the classic Margarita or a Tequila Old Fashioned. It can also be enjoyed neat or on the rocks to appreciate its complex flavors fully. When serving, consider using a rocks glass or a snifter to enhance the drinking experience.

Worth knowing

Patrón Añejo was one of the first tequilas to be bottled in a hand-blown glass bottle, making it not only a premium spirit but also a collector's item.
