The Patrón En Lalique Serie 1 is the first time that Lalique’s French artisans have worked with a tequila brand and the 75cl bottles are filled with one of the oldest and rarest tequilas in a celebration of the creativity, craftsmanship and artistry of the two brands.

The crystal decanter showcases Lalique’s signature technique of frosted crystal finishes and it highlights the unique amber colour of the tequila. The meticulous detail of the amber crystal stopper represents the heart of the agave – the piña.
