The combination of used whiskey barrels and deep well water has created a tequila with a rich and unique flavor, catering to the diversity and fastidiousness of today's tequila market.
Depends on how much you want to spend. We loved the Tears of Llorna (see video) which is an Extra anejo but is upward of $300. Easy to find....Tapatio is superb, Santo Fino is pretty good, El Tesoro is quality. G4 too although that might be harder to find.
By clarified do you mean decolorized? We would prefer the color that the tequila obtains after sitting in barrels for a year or more (for an anejo or extra anejo) or the color tequila obtains after sitting in barrels for three month to a year (reposado). Some distillers even let their blancps rest up to three months just short of calling the remposados.
I figured you'd definitely enjoy the Cascahuin tahona. Unfortunately the Cascahuin tahona anejo isn't available to us yet. Just the tahona and plata. Thank you for the shout out at Delucas Market at 11 Charles St. Boston MA. We appreciate it bro🥂🥂🥂 If you make it to Boston hit me up and we'll plan a tequila tasting for you. If you're in town on Tuesday your absolutely welcome to join us at my apt for tequila Tuesday 🥂🥂🥂
Thank you for your comment. Codigo 1530 used to be produced at the distillery that the Monte Fineo is made. The main reason we didn't like it is that it had a rubbery taste....perhaps due to its synthetic cork or a hiccup in the fermentation process. We love the Codigo 1530 (see our review).
I just got the blanco bottle. I thought everything about it was all tail end. From the smell to the taste, everything would come on very clean and smooth and then you would get hit with that tequila flavor
The best tequila to drink is what you like. We didn't like the reposado especially when compared to other tequilas that we have tried and reviewed. To us it was too sweet and obviously had certain sweetening additives.
Thanks! We've had and like the Codigo Blanco. Although we didn't review it. Thank you for the suggestion! We will re-visit and do a deeper dive (so to speak!). And, of course, we will give a shout out to RubberMango! Salud!
Thanks for watching our tequila review. Please check out our others. As far as the beer that uses the same type of top mechanism it''s Grolsch Pilsner beer from The Netherlands. We're pretty sure it's still made. But, indeed, it is a very interesting capping mechanism and is unique to La Gritona in the tequila world. Salud!
Quick note/update: These two bottles were produced at NOM 1459 where traditional tequila producing methods are used with ~8 year old agave.. We've heard that Grand Mayan produced at NOM 1173 doesn't measure up due to "shortcuts" and potential additives. So, if you're out purchasing tequila and decide on Grand Mayan make sure it's from NOM 1459. What we don't know, yet, is whether or not 1459 is the current distillery. We think it is and we're currently confirming. We will put another comment once we find out. Cheers!
