Gran Patrón Platinum Tequila (750Ml)

Gran Patrón Platinum is the top silver tequila in the Patrón family. It starts with 100% Blue Weber agave from the Highlands of Jalisco. The agave is picked at peak ripeness for its high sugar. It is crushed with volcanic stone and baked in clay ovens. The tequila is then distilled three times. Finally, it rests for 30 days in oak tanks.

That short rest smooths the edges and keeps it crystal clear. The aroma is sweet, with lightly cooked agave. On the palate you find citrus, orange and lime, with a pinch of white pepper. Soft oak sits underneath. Look for herbal tea, orange rind and ripe pear as well. The finish is smooth and elegant.

Each crystal bottle is numbered by hand and comes in a gift case. That makes it a fine pick for a big celebration or a special thank-you.

Patrón suggests serving it on the rocks or in a premium cocktail. Try it neat first so you can see how clean it is. A top-shelf Margarita or a tequila martini also works well. With food, reach for ceviche, grilled shrimp or fresh oysters. If you want a refined, high-quality tequila for slow sipping, this bottle is a joy.
