Patrón XO Cafe Incendio is a low-proof coffee liqueur with a fiery twist — a blend of Patrón Silver tequila, the pure essence of coffee, Criollo chocolate, and arbol chili peppers that finishes with a warming kick of heat.
Built on the same dry, low-sugar foundation as the original Patrón XO Cafe, the Incendio expression layers rich Criollo chocolate and the gentle fire of arbol chili over the coffee-and-tequila base. Handcrafted in small batches from 100% Weber Blue Agave, it's less sweet than typical coffee liqueurs — closer to a spirit than a syrup — which makes it as good for sipping as it is for mixing or drizzling over dessert.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Patrón XO Cafe Incendio sweet?
No — unlike most coffee liqueurs, the XO Cafe line is dry and low in sugar, closer to a spirit than a syrup. Incendio adds chocolate and chili heat on top of that dry coffee-and-tequila base.
How do you drink it?
Serve it chilled over ice, sip it neat, or use it as a spicy kick in cocktails and desserts — it's excellent drizzled over ice cream or stirred into an espresso martini variation for heat.
What gives it the heat?
Arbol chili peppers, blended with Criollo chocolate and coffee over the Patrón Silver base, produce the warming “incendio” (fire) finish.
