Joe Canal's in Lawrenceville and Woodbridge now have an extremely limited supply of Gran Patrón Piedra, an incredible extra añejo tequila. Better for our shoppers is that, right now, Gran Patrón Piedra is available nowhere else in the US other than New Jersey.
This extraordinary extra añejo tequila
is crafted entirely from the “Tahona” process, a time consuming and
ancient method for creating tequila. To produce Gran Patrón Piedra,
first Patrón selects the highest-quality, 100 percent agave from the
Highlands of Jalisco, which they then steam-cook and slowly crush with a
large volcanic stone Tahona wheel. The resulting juice is then fermented
and distilled along with the agave fiber. Piedra, which means “stone”
in Spanish, is one of very few tequilas that is still produced in this
age-old way. After distillation, Gran Patrón Piedra is meticulously aged
for more than three years in new American and French oak barrels for a
deep mahogany color and sweet, subtle aroma of fruit, fresh mushroom,
light citrus, and toasted French oak. The distinctive Gran Patrón Piedra
bottle, which was inspired by the Tahona stone, is packaged in an
elegant box that converts into a beautiful display case.
The taste is sweet, yet rich and complex, combining an herbaceous agave flavor with light vanilla, and fresh mushroom finish that is both long-lasting and incredibly smooth. At 40% ABV, it's a subtle tequila meant for sipping.
Gran Patrón Piedra is priced at $315.99.
