The creation of Signet begins with the distillery's rare and precious chocolate malt spirit, a spirit distilled only once a year in their iconic giraffe-high stills. This spirit possesses an intense, espresso-like character, filling the distillery with aromas reminiscent of an Italian coffee bar.
Over the years, the distillery expertly tempers this powerful spirit by aging it in rare and treasured casks. Bourbon casks contribute creaminess, sherry casks impart sweetness, and the spice of virgin charred oak adds depth. This intricate dance of flavors is further enriched by the inclusion of some of the oldest whisky in their collection.
The result is a velvety explosion of flavors, characterized by bursts of bitter mocha, sizzling spice, and enveloping waves of dark chocolate, all elegantly mellowed by the presence of smooth butterscotch. Signet is a testament to the distillery's mastery in crafting an exceptional and harmonious whisky.

PATRÓN XO Cafe is an exceptional coffee liqueur, crafted from the finest ingredients and distinguished by its smooth, velvety texture. Created through the union of super-premium PATRÓN Silver Tequila and the natural essence of high-quality Arabica coffee, this distinctive spirit strikes a careful balance between sweetness and bitterness. Its versatility makes it equally suited to sipping neat or mixing in cocktails.
As with all PATRÓN tequilas, the process begins with the harvesting of 100% Weber Blue Agave from the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Traditional techniques are upheld throughout each stage of production, from preparation through to distillation, with meticulous oversight to preserve quality and character. In the case of PATRÓN XO Cafe, the addition of coffee essence sourced from Veracruz results in a liqueur that is dry rather than overly sweet.
