Roca Patron Añejo has a permanent spot on our home bar because, although it is aged in used bourbon barrels, it still retains plenty of baked agave aromas and flavors.
Patrón Spirits Company’s artisanal Roca Patrón line, launched this summer, has far exceeded initial projections and is re-energizing the upscale Tequila brand for the company, which has further releases on the way.
Patrón's newest premium tequila, Roca Patron, may also be its most old-fashioned.
Patrón Spirits Co.—which essentially created the high-end tequila segment with its flagship Patrón Tequila brand—has gone further upmarket with a new line of artisanal Tequilas called Roca Patrón.
Bought this to complete my Roca collection. I hear this will be released again by Patron and I hope so. Not that it was a a tequila I would drink on a regular basis as there is still much better. But this is good and with the Patron name if it is released again it will end up in many restaurants and bars. This one has a nice nose of cooked agave, vanilla, oak and caramel. It’s buttery and has a touch of honey. Similar to the repo only sweeter. On the palate this is also tasty. I get agave and barrel spices. The whiskey is more pronounced on this one.
