This Tasting Contains 6 tubes of the following Tequilas:
Patron - Silver
Mexico
Patron silver is combining modern tequila making techniques with the traditional tahona method, creating a complex sophisticated tequila that honors traditions whilst taking center stage in the modern world of tequila. The key notes are citrus, pepper and green agave, making it the perfect match for an elevated margarita. With a handcraft focused production process of this 100% Blue Weber Agave tequila, the distillery employs over 1600ppl that every day ensure that the small batch production of Patron honors the legacy of the founding master distiller Francisco Alcaraz. The Bottles are hand-blown from recycled glass, and every bottle is controlled and signed by hand, making Patron a true sign of craftmanship and luxury.
Cazadores - Blanco
Mexico
Cazadores Blanco has a signature flavor and aroma that captures the freshness and herbaceous part of the agave, with a distinctive smooth finish. This blanco stems from the city Arandas from deep in the highlands of Jalisco, where tequila making is not just a profession – it’s a way of life. This 100% Agave tequila is created with the modern methods of autoclaves, resulting in a light, fresh tequila perfect for mixing in your favourite tequila cocktails. The Blanco is unaged, making it a tequila created for enjoying in the moment, without delay.
Patron - Reposado
Mexico
Reposado means rested and Patrons expression of this category truly honors the brands commitment to high end craftmanshp. The tequila spends 5-8 months on five different oak casks and is then expertly blended to the right Patron style and flavour by the master distiller David Rodriguez. The aging process brings out the more herbaceous and sweet notes from the Tahona process, whilst keeping the peppery and citrus forward attitude of the silver, resulting in a tequila with strong notes of honey & dried apple, with a slight kick of pepper and vegetal notes in the background. Like the silver expression, each bottle is hand labelled and signed before leaving the distillery for the top bars in the world.
Cazadores - Reposado
Mexico
Cazadores Reposado (which means rested) is the barrel aged extension of the core range of blanco tequila produced at the distillery in Arandas, Jalisco. After spending up to a year in barrels made from new American oak, the tequila takes on a honeyed more sweet expression, bringing out the softer notes from the 100% Weber Agave. Created in a 7-step process which is fully sustainable and zero-waste, Cazadores reposado still carries the rich expression of the original recipe from 1922, whilst staying at the front of environmental friendly development in the tequila industry. This price winning expression works beautifully as a sipping tequila or in a tommy´s margarita.
Patron - Añejo
Mexico
Patron is a very popular Tequila. It is the most sold 100% Agave Tequila in the world. Haciënda Patron was one of the first distilleries in the Jalisco area. In 2002, a new distillery was built, where the Tequila is distilled in small batches. From these different batches, a blend is made, which is then put the barrel. This Anejo has matured for at least 12 months in small barrels (200 liters) of American white oak. The result is a soft, balanced tequila with earthy tones of vanilla, honey and oak.
Don Julio - 70
Mexico
Don Julio 70th Anniversary proudly celebrates 70 years of knowledge, expertise and innovation. It has the smoothness of a Blanco tequila and the complexity of an Añejo tequila - a wholly unique experience. Don Julio 70th Anniversary is aged for 18 months in American oak casks and then charcoal filtered to become Añejo Claro Tequila.
