Patrón x Guillermo del Toro "The Transfiguration" — 750ml | 40% ABV

Price: $2,549.99 Regular price:

An Architectural Masterpiece of Tequila This limited edition is housed in a stunning, matte-black "altar" box that opens to reveal a centerpiece bottle designed by del Toro. The set is uniquely configured: the main 750ml bottle contains the Extra Añejo tequila, while a smaller 100ml "skull" liqueur bottle rests atop it, intended to be mixed or sipped alongside the spirit.

The Spirit: A Rare Extra Añejo Blend The tequila itself is a complex blend of Patrón tequilas aged for an average of five years in a combination of new American and used French oak barrels. This extended aging results in a profile far richer and more "oak-forward" than the standard Patrón line, leaning into the dark, gothic aesthetic del Toro is known for.

Detailed Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep mahogany with bright golden highlights.

  • Aroma: Intense notes of dry fruits, nuts, and orange peel, layered with heavy oak, vanilla, and a hint of light agave honey.

  • Palate: Full-bodied and velvety. Rich flavors of dark chocolate, caramel, and toasted oak are balanced by a subtle, underlying sweetness of cooked agave and a touch of clove.

  • Finish: Exceptionally long and warming, with a lingering dry oak finish and a faint hint of smoke.
