LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

The most important tequila of the modern era. While its ubiquity makes it an easy target for critics, the liquid inside remains a technical masterclass in balance and purity—a spirit that defined the luxury blanco category.

The Library Note

Produced at the Hacienda Patrón in Jalisco, every bottle of Patrón is a testament to tradition. It is one of the few large-scale brands that still uses the traditional 'Tahona' process—a two-ton volcanic stone wheel—to crush the agave, ensuring a depth of flavor that modern shredders cannot achieve.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Fresh and herbal. Bright aromas of roasted agave are balanced by citrus peel and a hint of white pepper.

THE PALATE

Crisp and smooth. Sweet, fruity notes of pineapple and melon give way to a sophisticated mineral clarity.

THE FINISH

Light and elegant with a gentle, peppery tingle.
