Two of Patrón's prestige expressions together, each in its own presentation box, which makes this an easy gift to hand over as it is. Neither of these is the standard Silver or Reposado, and that is the point. Patrón El Cielo is a silver tequila distilled four times, which is rare in a category where twice is the norm, and the extra passes are used to build an exceptionally soft, refined spirit rather than to strip out character. It pours bright and clear, with a nose of fresh citrus, light floral notes and gentle cooked agave. The palate is smooth and delicate, with sweet agave, pear and a whisper of black pepper, finishing clean, crisp and remarkably easy for a blanco at 80 proof. The tall clear bottle with its gold detailed stopper is built for display. Patrón El Alto sits at the top of the range. Labelled reposado, it is composed primarily of reposado tequila blended with older añejo and extra añejo stocks, which gives it noticeably more depth than a straightforward rested tequila. Expect honey, vanilla and dried fruit on the nose over gentle oak, then a rich, rounded palate of cooked agave, caramel, toasted oak and warm baking spice, closing long and smooth. It is presented in a striking deep blue bottle with an ornate collar and matching stopper, easily one of the more handsome bottles on a back bar. Both are made from 100% Weber blue agave in Jalisco and bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof). Together they cover unaged and aged in a single set, with a clear step up in richness from one to the other, which makes them work as a tasting pair as well as a gift.
