Our best bartender heads to Hacienda Patrón in Jalisco, Mexico

At Las Iguanas we certainly know how to put on a show of thanks and make our people feel rewarded!

Recently returning from a trip of a lifetime to Mexico is our best bartender winner George Edgecombe. George from Las Iguanas Birmingham Temple Street spent 3 nights in Hacienda Patron, the home of Tequila Patron. Starting his adventure flying business class with United Airlines, George explored the handcrafted process to creating Tequila Patron – a bartenders dream!

Visiting agave fields, enjoying Patron distillery tours and guided tequila tastings were all highlights of George’s trip. Not to forget luxurious dinners, stops at their very own cocktail bar at La Casona and relaxing in his deluxe La Casona room.

Where George learnt all about the piña process. After the agave has ripened for eight years the skilled Jimadors strip away the leaves using a Coa, to reveal the heart of the plant, the piña.

George also experienced the entire tequila-making process that takes place at Hacienda Patrón
