Had high Hopes for this one but falls short on the palate after a decent nose. Not very complex at all. Some agave and oak. A bit sweet then bitter. I still need to find the 1st duty free release.
I think this would be better at 45% ABV. Quite fruity, this has an cherry cough syrup element to it that isn't sweet or cloying. Finish is very dry, as in vermouth dry and happens on the tongue tip and center. Very easy to swallow with not a bit of roughness or burn.
I like sherried scotch and I honestly think Patron makes a decent product. This just was a weird point between a sherry bomb and an añejo, it does not taste like tequila.
Aroma: Red wine, sherry heavy. Fruit, nuts, almost a touch of apple cider. The barest hint of cooked agave, and some almost cognac like notes. Very pleasant, round and soft nose. Palate: Oak and sherry front and center, stealing the show. Definitely getting some barrel spice but it’s so different than I’m used to, very heavy on the fruit. A spiced fruit note comes through. Very nutty, caramel and cooked agave on the backend. Surprisingly not as sweet as the nose would suggest. Verdict: I love it, worth every penny I paid. Truly a unique addition to my collection. This is definitely a sherry bomb, and if you’re into that, you’ll love this. If not, then not. I do, I’m a big fan of sherry finished spirits, so a fully sherry aged spirit really piqued my interest and I’ll have this in my collection as long as they sell it.
Wow, not your typical Patron Flavor profile, big Sherry notes of sweetness. Nicely balanced out dried fruit & slight cooked agave. A real nice sipper
The sherry cask brings a nice layer of wine, with some nuts, ripe peach and fruit. This is a different aroma and flavor profile for Patrón, and is quite enjoyable. As you can probably tell from reading the other reviews, sherry cask aromas and flavors aren't for everyone. Usually brands will "finish" their aging in sherry casks to impart a light hint, but in this case Patrón aged it fully which brings pronounced sherry aromas and flavors.
Most definitely, you get the Sherry barrel immediately. It’s impossible to get much more than just the nose of Sherry. Still I do appreciate that since I knew what I was buying before I bought it. Well there is no sweetness, there is a perceived richness. On the finish it seems as if the Tequila is trying to yell it’s name, but the sherry taste still prevails. It is definitely a unique style, but I think this would be fantastic with either a cigar, chocolate or chocolate dessert or a cocktail.
Saw Lou & Greg's review which made me want to try this even though because it's Patron I was hesitant. Reminds me of Adictivo w/ out the additives - awesome aroma, taste was good, finish was empty which was strange. Strong Sherry presence obviously but I shoulda listened to Lou on this & passed. Will try again in a few weeks to see if it opens up
Aroma of oak, agave, and a slight plasticy scent. The longer it sits it definitely opens up to fruit and floral notes. Flavor is a little sweet up front, especially if your a non additive purist but accepting that its additive free, you stop fighting and just accept and enjoy it for what it is. Was putting off trying it every time it winked at me in the stores but Lou Agave's review finally convinced me to try it and and I'm happy that I did.
Very smokey, high complexity, and definitely sits far too well form typical patron. very amber aroma on the shery wood and other floral touches. taste is bold and full body. definitely need a chance to be on your shelf or special occasions.
Might be my favorite tequilas thus far. Great sipping with a cigar! The sherry is immediate on the nose, with some very light oak. Pecan and date flavors were up front and prominent. Light agave was on the finish. It is like a marriage of quality bourbon and tequila. An odd mix that under normal circumstances would maybe be off-putting. However, Patron makes it work. Pair with your favorite cigar.

The tequila that can get whisky drinkers into tequila especially those who love Macallan, Glendronach, Glenfarclas, etc. This sherry cask aged tequila has lots of sherry influence consisting of notes of raisins, Nutella, pecan pie, cloves, maple syrup, licorice, figs, dates, ginger, orange peels, Christmas cakes, green chili peppers, almonds, cranberries, mulled wine, and some cooked agave. This may not be for pure tequila drinkers as the sherry overpowers the agave and although I enjoyed it and would recommend trying it once at some point, I wouldn’t put it up there with Tears of Llorona, Gran Patrón Burdeos, Arte Extra Añejo, Tres Cuatro y Cinco.
Bold aroma with a hint of Sherry, mild alcohol harshness. Flavor is a little bland and watery with a Sherry spice on the finish. It’s a bit discombobulated. Mildly unpleasant aftertaste that’s heavier with a larger sip.
Incredible aroma! Dark brown sugar and cooked agave mixed with cinnamon and anise. Wafting sherry is present as well. Taste is too strong with boozy sherry and some agave. Finish is good and balanced with aroma and taste. This is interesting but I’m glad I didn’t buy the bottle.
The sherry cask is forward in the aroma and taste profile. Rather dry finish. Not enough agave for my taste.
I did not like this at all, only someone who likes cherry would find this palatable. Just so much cherry
Great on the nose, the initial taste is a bit overpowering and takes away from the true form of what a Tequila is from my palate.
Nose of dried fig, apricot, blended with aromas reminiscent of mulled wine. Sweet, pleasant, and light across the tongue. Ends on a light burst of cinnamon and other mulled wine flavors, flavor dissipates quickly but leaves a nice warmth. A good blend of tequila and sherry influence, and a great winter sipper.
Sherry on the front, vanilla on the back.
This is really nice. Better than I expected. Drier than I expected. I wanted to not like it, but it’s really good. You should buy a bottle.
