Patrón Cask Collection Sherry Añejo (2021)

90 SCORE

“The tequila that can get whisky drinkers into tequila especially those who love Macallan, Glendronach, Glenfarclas, etc. This sherry cask aged tequila has lots of sherry influence consisting of notes of raisins, Nutella, pecan pie, cloves, maple syrup, licorice, figs, dates, ginger, orange peels, Christmas cakes, green chili peppers, almonds, cranberries, mulled wine, and some cooked agave. This may not be for pure tequila drinkers as the sherry overpowers the agave and although I enjoyed it and would recommend trying it once at some point, I wouldn’t put it up there with Tears of Llorona, Gran Patrón Burdeos, Arte Extra Añejo, Tres Cuatro y Cinco. ”
