Hacienda Patron Anejo: A Deep Dive into a Premium Tequila Experience

Hacienda Patron Anejo is a well-respected expression within the Patrón tequila portfolio. Aged for over 12 months in American white oak barrels, this reposado tequila transcends the standard with its complex flavour profile and smooth finish. If you re looking for a refined tequila to elevate your sipping experience or craft exceptional cocktails, Hacienda Patron Anejo is a worthy contender.

Aroma:

Hacienda Patron Anejo greets the nose with a warm and inviting bouquet. Agave, the core ingredient of tequila, takes centre stage, offering a sweetness that mingles with hints of vanilla and baking spice. The influence of the oak ageing comes through subtly, with whispers of caramel and toasted coconut adding depth. As the tequila opens up, earthy notes of minerality and a touch of citrus peel emerge, creating a well-rounded and enticing aroma.

Taste:

The first sip of Hacienda Patron Anejo reveals a smooth and luxurious texture. The initial sweetness from the agave is balanced beautifully by a gentle peppery heat that warms the palate without overpowering it. The oak ageing becomes more apparent on the taste buds, imparting flavours of vanilla, caramel, and a hint of chocolate. Hints of dried fruit, like raisin and date, peek through, adding further complexity. The minerality from the aroma translates to a subtle earthiness that lingers on the tongue, complementing the overall flavour profile.

Finish:

Hacienda Patron Anejo boasts a remarkably long and satisfying finish. The sweetness and spice from the taste slowly fade, leaving behind a lingering warmth and a touch of oaky vanilla. The subtle earthiness persists, adding a pleasant dryness that keeps the palate wanting more.
