After entering the Hacienda Patrón estate, you drive past an agave field as you approach the distillery and this very limited-edition tequila is made only using agave from this field, some 4,000 agave harvested over two days in April 2018.
The field was replanted after harvesting but it will be 6-7 years before the agave reach maturity and the next Estate Release can be produced.
The harvested agave are roasted in brick ovens and crushed using a tahona wheel, fermented, and distilled.
