Process & Profile

Roca Patr√≥n Añejo Tequila stands as a testament to the traditional craftsmanship of tequila production. Made from 100% Weber Blue Agave grown in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, this tequila honors its roots through the time-honored *tahona* process. The mature agave, aged 6-7 years before harvest, is slow-cooked in clay brick ovens for 79 hours, then crushed under a two-ton volcanic stone wheel, extracting vibrant, earthy flavors. After fermentation in pinewood tanks and double distillation in copper pot stills, this tequila is aged for 14 months in used American oak bourbon barrels. Bottled at 44% ABV, it boasts a rich, full-bodied profile that reflects meticulous attention to detail and tradition.

Tasting Notes

Roca Patr√≥n Añejo offers a sophisticated tasting experience. The amber-hued spirit invites with enticing aromas of baked agave, oak, vanilla, and caramel, complemented by notes of warm spices. On the palate, it unveils a velvety texture woven with layers of caramel, butterscotch, and marzipan, alongside subtle hints of raisins, almonds, and bitter chocolate. The finish is smooth, with lingering notes of oak, black pepper, and a buttery richness, ensuring every sip is an exploration of depth and complexity.

What Makes It Special

What sets Roca Patr√≥n Añejo apart is the use of the *tahona* process, a rarity even among premium tequilas. This ancient method enhances the tequila with softer, earthier flavors, distinguishing it from modern roller-mill tequilas. Its aging in used bourbon barrels imparts a unique blend of oak, spice, and sweetness while preserving the tequila's agave-forward characteristics. The slightly higher alcohol content (88-proof) results in a more concentrated and flavorful spirit. This artisanal approach positions Roca Patr√≥n Añejo as a connoisseur's choice, ideal for those who appreciate authenticity and refinement.

How to Enjoy

Roca Patr√≥n Añejo is best enjoyed as a sipping tequila to fully appreciate its complex flavor profile. Serve it neat or over a large ice cube for a luxurious experience. For cocktail enthusiasts, it elevates classic recipes with its rich, nuanced flavors—try it in a tequila Old Fashioned or Añejo Highball. Its depth and smoothness also pair beautifully with dark chocolate or desserts, making it a versatile delight for any occasion. Discover Roca Patr√≥n Añejo Tequila—a celebration of tradition, craftsmanship, and extraordinary flavor.
