Patron Sherry cask is aged for a minimum of two years in Spanish oak barrels that were previously used to age Oloroso Sherry. This extended aging period allows the flavors of the oak to meld with the unique characteristics of 100% Weber Blue Agave, resulting in a truly exceptional tequila.
The choice to age Patron Sherry cask for over two years is a deliberate one, as it allows the tequila to develop a complex and rich flavor profile. The Spanish oak barrels used in the aging process impart distinct notes of oak, which adds depth and complexity to the final product. This is particularly evident in the smoothness and richness of the tequila, as well as its warm and lingering finish.
The decision to use barrels that previously held Oloroso Sherry is also significant. Oloroso Sherry is a fortified wine that is known for its deep amber color and rich, nutty flavors. The residual flavors and aromas from the Sherry that remain in the barrels help to enhance the overall flavor profile of the tequila. This adds an additional layer of complexity and depth to the final product, making Patron Sherry cask a truly unique and distinctive tequila.
When enjoying Patron Sherry cask, you can expect to experience the unmistakable taste of oak, along with the characteristic flavor of 100% Weber Blue Agave. This combination creates a truly harmonious and balanced tequila that is sure to delight even the most discerning palates.
