Origin:


Margarita Jalisco represents the connection between me and tequila: where we come from.

Raspberry: which represents the characteristic red color of the land in Los Altos, whose properties provide a special flavor to the agaves that grow in it.

Mint: it makes me think of the agave landscape, a world heritage site, breathing in the fresh aroma of green agaves while walking among them is a unique experience.

Coconut water and salt (saline solution): the beautiful coasts of Jalisco, Puerto Vallarta, the place where I was born.

Citronge Pattern: which represents the natural wealth that exists in Jalisco, and as Patrón makes the most of its resources.

Patrón Silver Tequila: the spirit, whose fruity and citrus notes and sweet and delicate flavor exploits the perfect balance between all the ingredients of this cocktail.

Margarita Jalisco is the expression of how proud I am to share the birthplace with the best and most important distillate from Mexico to the world.
