Patron Tequila Extra 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 Extra Añejo is made from the highest-quality 100% Weber Blue Agave. Aged for a minimum of 3 years in American, French and Hungarian oak barrels, it features deep, nuanced flavors perfect for replacing whiskey in your cocktails.
