Patrón's oak-rested tequila: fresh agave softened with honey, vanilla and light oak.
What it is
Patrón Reposado is a 100% agave tequila bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV). It starts with the same small-batch spirit as Patrón Silver, made from tahona- and roller-milled agave at Hacienda Patrón in Jalisco, then rests in oak barrels for several months. The time in wood mellows the spirit and adds sweetness while keeping the agave front and center. It comes in Patrón's signature heavy glass bottle with a cork stopper.
