Patrón has released a blend of its oldest and rarest tequilas in a handmade, limited edition Lalique crystal decanter. Only 500 of these decanters, named Patrón en Lalique: Serie 1, have been created in the world and just one will be available in Australia, valued at US$7,500.
Inspired by Mexico’s indigenous Weber Blue Agave plant, the amber crystal bottle stopper has been shaped to represent the heart of the agave. The decanter also showcases Lalique’s signature technique of contrasting clear and frosted crystal finishes, which further enhances the unique amber colour of the bottled tequila.
The partnership, the latest extension of Patrón’s “Art of Patrón” platform (a unique collection of experiences that reflects artists’ uncompromising commitment to their craft), marks the first time that Lalique has collaborated with a tequila brand and the first time that Patrón has joined with a crystal maker to reimagine the iconic Patrón tequila bottle.
“We are proud to partner with Patrón", Silvio Denz, Chairman and CEO of Lalique said. "Our two brands share strong and mutual values of creativity, craftsmanship and artistry, both striving for uncompromising quality and excellence."
Francisco Alcaraz, Patrón’s Master Distiller added: “The exclusive small batch of tequila we perfected for Patrón en Lalique: Serie 1 is a remarkable extra añejo tequila with a well-balanced taste and complex notes of sweet caramel, honey, vanilla, dried fruits and nuts…This is a stunningly beautiful spirit, both inside and out.”
