Gran Patron Piedra Extra Anejo Tequila (750Ml)

Description

Gran Patrón Piedra is the extra añejo of the Gran Patrón range. Its name is Spanish for "stone," and that points to how it is made. The Blue Weber agave comes from Los Altos, the highlands of Jalisco. After steam cooking, it is crushed slowly by a large tahona stone wheel.

The juice is fermented and distilled together with the agave fibers. Then the tequila rests for four years in French Limousin oak and new American oak. It pours a rich, deep mahogany. The bottle itself is shaped to echo the tahona stone.

Your first sniff brings toasted coconut, sweet potato and dried apple. A light edge of toasted French oak sits behind them. On the palate you find vanilla, caramel, nutmeg and apple. A subtle earthiness runs underneath, and the texture feels velvety. It stays smooth right to the end.

This is a tequila to sip slowly. Pour it neat or over one large ice cube and give it time in the glass. It sits well next to dark chocolate, aged cheese, roasted nuts or a rich dessert.

Gran Patrón Piedra makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves aged agave spirits. It also suits the curious drinker who wants to taste what the old tahona method brings. Browse more tequila to compare it with other aged bottles.
