Super-premium tequila lands in Australia



Good news for tequila lovers in Australia. 

Patron Tequila, the world's best-selling super-premium tequila, just released its latest expression, Patron El Alto, in time for summer festivities. 

Hand-crafted from 100% Weber Blue Agave grown in the highest parts of Jalisco, Mexico, El Alto is a limited-release aged tequila aimed at aficionados. 

Master Distiller David Rodriguez and his team have combined a selection of the best Reposado, Añejo, and Extra Añejotequilas.

"Patron El Alto stays true to Patron Tequila's traditional roots in distilling while innovating in a way that achieves the best blended, aged tequila profile possible," said Rodriguez.

“The tequilas that harmoniously come together took four years to focus on only the best of the best and perfect the bold, sweet flavours of this expression the right way: naturally."

El Alto is, I am reliably informed, made using the traditional Tahona production process. This involves a two-tonne volcanic stone being used to crush the baked agave, "which creates a tequila with natural sweetness and flavours of the earth". 

Patron is the leading producer of Tahona-based tequila in the world. 

I'll add some tasting notes shortly. 

Patron El Alto is available in select premium venues and retail outlets Australia-wide now for an RRP of $315.
