PATRÓN EL ALTO Arrives in Australia, Setting a New Standard for Premium Tequila

Drink / 26 March 2025

PATRÓN Tequila has introduced its latest release, PATRÓN EL ALTO, to the Australian market, setting a new benchmark for premium tequila.

Crafted from 100% Weber Blue Agave sourced from the highest regions of Jalisco, Mexico, this expertly aged tequila is designed for those who appreciate refined taste and quality craftsmanship.

PATRÓN EL ALTO is primarily composed of Extra Añejo tequila, blended with Añejo and Reposado tequilas aged to their full potential. The result is a smooth, well-balanced profile with notes of figs, honey, caramel, dried fruit, and vanilla. A key element of its production is the use of the traditional Tahona process, where a two-ton volcanic stone crushes baked agave to extract its natural sweetness, a technique that remains rare in the industry.

PATRÓN Master Distiller David Rodriguez and his team conducted over 300 tastings to achieve the final blend. “PATRÓN EL ALTO stays true to our traditional distilling roots while refining the art of aged tequila,” said Rodriguez. “We focused on selecting only the best agave from Jalisco’s highest regions to create a naturally smooth and balanced tequila.”

PATRÓN continues to lead the premium tequila category, with EL ALTO reinforcing its position in a segment experiencing significant growth. “This launch marks another milestone for PATRÓN as we expand in the super-premium space,” said James Fisher, PATRÓN Senior Brand Manager. “PATRÓN EL ALTO is the culmination of our dedication to quality, offering an elevated drinking experience for those seeking the finest tequila.”

Now available at Dan Murphy’s, various Merivale locations including Berts and Mimi’s as well as select premium venues across Australia, priced at RRP $315. Its distinctive blue bottle pays tribute to the agave fields of Jalisco, making it a striking addition to any collection or celebration.
