Gran Patrón is Patrón's ultra-premium line, featuring tequilas crafted with even more meticulous attention to detail, often involving triple distillation, longer aging, and unique barrel finishes, resulting in a more refined and complex product.
The Gran Patrón line includes expressions like Gran Patrón Platinum (triple-distilled silver), Gran Patrón Piedra (extra añejo aged in French and American oak), and Gran Patrón Burdeos (añejo finished in Bordeaux wine barrels).
Gran Patrón Platinum is triple-distilled and rested in oak tanks for 30 days for a subtle creaminess, while Patrón Silver is double-distilled and unaged, both delivering a clean agave taste but with different nuances.
Gran Patrón Burdeos is an añejo tequila aged in a combination of American and French oak barrels, and then finished in vintage Bordeaux wine barrels, which imparts a distinctive dark amber color and complex fruit and oak notes.
Yes, Gran Patrón bottles are highly collectible. They are hand-numbered crystal decanters, often presented in luxurious wooden boxes, emphasizing their artisanal craftsmanship and limited nature.
