Few bottles shorthand ‘tequila’ for as many drinkers as Patrn Silver, a blanco tequila distilled from 100% Weber Blue agave at Hacienda Patrn in the Jalisco Highlands. The recipe runs three ingredients deep agave, yeast, water with nothing added, and the unaged spirit goes to bottle clear and bright at 80 proof. What made the bottle famous still holds up in the glass: fresh agave and citrus on the nose, a clean, crisp palate of cooked agave, honeydew, and lemongrass, and a light white-pepper finish. It is the rare crowd-pleaser that works both directions shake it into a margarita or paloma for guests, or sip it chilled and neat to taste why blanco is the purest expression of agave.
