Patrón, El Cielo, Tequila (40%)
- Tequila
Product: 10008075213
Description
This new ultra-prestige silver tequila from the family of Hacienda Patrón has a heady nose of citrus and spices, with tantalising hints of roast parsnip, butterscotch and a herbal top note. The terroir from which this agave is grown has high elevation red soils, resulting in a rich palate of caramel, hazelnut and a refreshing burst of lime juice, and leaving a warming, welcoming finish of muscovado sugar and nutmeg. This is outrageously smooth and incredibly complex, perfect to enjoy neat or on the rocks.

Mexico
Mexico boasts a rich tradition of spirit-making, centring on tequila and mezcal. Tequila, derived from blue agave, undergoes a regulated process in regions like Jalisco, yielding varieties such as blanco and añejo. Mezcal, made from various agave species, mainly thrives in Oaxaca and is known for its unique smoky flavour. Both spirits hold cultural significance, and the rise of premium and craft varieties has spurred the growth of small-batch distilleries.
