Gran Patrón Platinum Review
This tequila doesn't rely on lengthy oak aging or filtration to soften its edges; instead, its smoothness and richness arrive as a direct result of the hand-selected agave used for production. Rested for 30 days in oak prior to bottling, it has the polished character of a Cristalino and the velvet texture of spirits that have aged for years in oak. While the elevated price point suggests you should steer clear of cocktails, give in to temptation and enjoy one of the finest Margaritas you will ever experience.
