Time and time again we have demonstrated that people choose marketing and high prices over quality and flavor. Great show fellas

@mcwine18 Год назад

Your methods in these blinds are godlike. Love these blind challenges, every - single - time.

@TheCs1968 Год назад

I don’t care if blind challenges don’t really work, they are fun as heck to watch!

@CustomStroke Год назад

Awesome video! I love how shocked you are. Would love to see Siete leguas thrown in here as well

@robertmyers5763 Год назад

There are so many world class repos not included in this tasting, that the video should be called, "Reposado Blind Challenge", but definitely not the "Best".

@MrTJB3000 Год назад

Siete and Volans SiB are my 2 favorite. They would be excellent for a blind like this

@tombetty1313 Год назад

These blinds are the best. Gets the bottle bias out. Great content. 🤘🏼

@mhpitch Год назад

So impressed with this blind! All the way down to the blacked out Glenn! Still can't believe all my favorites were beat out! almost unanimously! Cheers gents!

@rockonblackops777 Год назад

Two for two for fortaleza now. Is it all hype? Ocho does well twice now. Arrette for the win

@robertmyers5763 Год назад

While well-made, Fortaleza is definitely overhyped and overpriced. There are obviously other well-made brands equal to, or better than Fortaleza.

@davpart7723 Год назад

Every time I put Fortaleza, Ocho and G4 blancos head to head I end up choosing Ocho or G4, 🤷🏻‍♂️

@juggernaut316 Год назад

One thing is for sure fortaleza is overpriced

@ejf8350 Год назад

Can't say I'm surprised by the results. They're all fantastic bottles. You can probably blind them again 2 weeks from now and get totally different results. And Fortaleza has pretty wild batch variation. Some batches are okay. Others are life-altering.

@jorgesoria6248 Год назад

What school did Dillion go to😂 Osculating molecules in kindergarten 😮

@steveh.3370 Год назад

What do you expect, Dillon is left handed.

@RodneyHenderson357 Год назад

Ridiculous

@toddprit Год назад

After these SHOCKING results I'd love to see how the normal low priced Arette compares to the Artesanal line. Can't believe a $24 bottle beat these big boys so decidedly.

@mechanicalhippo493 6 месяцев назад

Have not had the repo artisinal but the blanco is fantastic and find it to be quite a jump up from the norm .

@droneroad Год назад

Absolutely awesome!! This is why blind taste tests are the best. Love it

@frankesh Год назад

Wow! I wonder how Arette reposado and Arette suave reposado stack up against each other.

@ereg8691 Год назад

Love that Arette bottle, I think it’s really underrated. I get it for $20 where I’m at!

@beeeethz Год назад

You guys should try the 123 Organic Tequila line. The reposado in particular is a treat! Cheers

@Marco_A_Marcano_Soto Год назад

im Fortunate to have 2 bottles each of Tapatio blanco & Repo and 1 bottle each of G4 Blanco, Repo and Añejo and 2 of Tears of Llorona extra añejo

@JawesomeMeister Год назад

For the anejo blind challenge, I request you add Pueblo Viejo as your 6th. Nothing wrong with cheap, traditionally made tequila. Salud! For the blanco high proof challenge, Arette 101 square bottle is going to be a great competitor. Thank you guys, I love the blind challenge videos.

@d.posey1010 Год назад

No surprise that Ocho is always at the top. Such a good tequila! One of my favorites without a doubt!

@donnatecce1884 Год назад

Oh you all make my day!!! Loved having Arette be the winner.

@royn8032 Год назад

Maybe this is why I can't find Arrete repo anywhere here except online stores

@beehappy8941 10 месяцев назад

you three guys are so entertaining, funny and talking about the stuff I love - glad I found you - best wishes & cheers

@anthonyflores9336 Год назад

Great episode guys! Very funny. 😂

@christianriel8040 Год назад

I don't drink tequila, so I don't know what I'm talking about but it seems that your first choice is the most barrel influence, judging by the color. So maybe that's why it's your numero uno 🍹

@TrophFantatic Год назад

Love it guys, the one the entire internet has been hoping holding its breath for....suprised but nice to see ocho high up there again, do you think fortaleza will still "underperform" if given blind score on a seperate days to the others (ie sample, rate and review blind one each day at a time), this will tell us once and for all whether it gets outshone alongside other tequilas with one or another traits or if fortaleza truly underperforms as a tequila in general (although everyone was truly a winner in that batch, just some were more winners than others)

@andrewgeorge875 Год назад

Great video guys! I assumed the Arette would be in the top 3 with its uniqueness, but wow! I’d love to see you guys come back with a couple more of these blind challenges with new additive free brands. Then pin your voted favorites in a top 3 blind.

@WhosJandro 7 месяцев назад

Siete Leguas Reposado is my go to! Never disappoints

@ernieforni3221 Год назад

Wow, also shocked. I have tried the Fortaleza, G4, and El Tesoro Reposados and El Tesoro is my favorite.

@mike212916 Год назад

El Tesoro my fav too

@tombryan1 Год назад

The world will never be the same, this is more important than the moon landing

@davidlittle6621 Год назад

You guts drink really fast! 🤣

@hrbartender3079 Год назад

Does juelz not like wearing the merch? Lol I just noticed this

@clw37918 Год назад

I’d love to see more vids. Once a week isn’t enough! More more more!

@pickleeater3102 Год назад

My favorite spirits channel!

@robertmyers5763 Год назад

Blind tastings are fun and reveal that we don't know as much as we think we do!🤣Your blind tasting removed your already preconceived bias for Fortaleza. I'm the opposite, I'm always hoping it confirms my dislike for Fortaleza's flavor profile. I would've liked to see G4 higher, but I need to try Arette's standard repo. I've had the blanco, and it's good, but I definitely considered it a second-tier blanco.

@efren3723 Год назад

Same here. I never fell in love with Fortaleza like everybody else seems to have.. I was hyped to try it, but it was just 'alright' for me and my fiancé. Ocho, tesoro, codigo repos are better.

@robertmyers5763 Год назад

@@efren3723 I've had Fortaleza blanco, Still Strength, and repo. There's a buttery and brininess to the overall Fortaleza profile that I don't find appealing.

@sinceimhere1646 Год назад

I'm more impressed with the low prices you guys are getting these bottles for. The only thing that I can find that is the same price is the G4. Everything else is $10-$30 more expensive. 😭

@msigala Год назад

When are you going to have dr. Auju as a special guest?

@zerodynamic Год назад

That was one of the most intense reveals ever! I almost jumped out of my seat when I found out what 5th place was. On a side note, Dutch your time lapse music for this video was awesome. You ever think about putting out an album?

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

Thanks! I've slowly been releasing some music here: youtube.com/@futuremagik?si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE

@saiphen Год назад

Guess I'll be scouting the horse on my next trip to the liquor store. Didn't expect that one.

@iess2006 Год назад

1. Should've used premium Arette Repo 2. Excluded Siete Leguas wtf 3. Azuñia u should also try, 123 Organic #2. And the ultimate value in Tequila...Pueblo Viejo Repo Enjoy the channel but this one could have been better.

@sweetsinnndy5201 6 месяцев назад

Just started drinking tequila, first one was Nosotros, and I loved it. Loved the video and you guys being real.

@chrisjackson8042 Год назад

I’m sipping Siete Leguas while watching. Only tried Ocho from these bottles

@Joel-RN141 Год назад

Pls try Curado blanco all 3 bottles, Nosotros reposado, and La Gritona… comparison

@shrewdcritic83 Год назад

Great episode straight 🔥

@torrejuan1971 Год назад

These blinds are so great! I pass by Arette all the time...no more!

@steveh.3370 Год назад

Remember that Arette scored last in the blanco blind challenge.

@nikkayamazaki Год назад

Just bought the Arrete thanks to your suggestion. It’s really great. Like Dillon always says, I definitely get the floral notes

@MrTJB3000 Год назад

Not surprised Fortaleza came in last. It doesn't have a lot of complexity. It's a great sip, but not a favorite of mine. I think this holds especially true for those of us who are heavily influenced by bourbon. What do you guys think of Volans SiB Rep? Is my favorite rep.

@therealsoulfly69 Год назад

You can always tell that Dillion is just waiting to talk.

@beernutzbob Год назад

I was sipping El Tesoro Resposado as I watched your video so I skipped to the end to see what color it was and then skipped back to listen to the comments on it. It is my favorite Resposado but I'll definitely give Arette a try if I can find it. My TotalWine doesn't carry it.

@iess2006 Год назад

Be sure to try the Artesenal Arette expressions too. Worth it.

@SteveShort-hj2ro Год назад

Your prices are so low! I am in TX and they are quite a bit more. Ex. G4 repo $56, Fort repo $60, ET repo $50 and Ocho repo $56

@eniportatropine Год назад

Lucky you're not in New Zealand.. Fort repo would be about 90--100 USD here, Anejo is around 120-130. Ocho around $70, ET is really hard to find and prices all over the place. Arette is the only brand from this test that can be found here for a similar price. G4 and many others dont even get imported here.

@MrHavy09 Год назад

Fortaleza is still my fave imo, to your point I think blinds are more a function of "bold over subtle taste". It'll be cool to see these in your ultimate spirits competition. I think drinking them individually instead of blinds might make a difference.

@robertmyers5763 Год назад

This is a common theme, that Fortaleza doesn't do well in blinds, and you're right that it does better individually because preconceived opinions will always place it higher. It's a well-made tequila that is overhyped and overpriced once it's imported and distributed.

@97brake Год назад

Great video! Would love to see an blind tasting of anejos

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

Coming soon!

@MrTJB3000 Год назад

Arte Nom 1146 gets my vote

@kingjory28 Год назад

Props to Arette! I haven't tried it yet but I will be soon. I do love ocho and I thought that would win. Can't wait for anejo blind test!

@sggjose Год назад

I know you kept same brands... and that you tried the blanco high proof of what I'm about to say... but, guys... Wild Common Reposado. Please try it. I'll pay for it, if you want... haha. The nose alone is unbelievable.

@ositofreitas Год назад

Love it. Wait till you guys try the Arette regular Anejo.

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

Yeah, we're going to do the same lineup for añejo

@Babouyah 10 месяцев назад

Arette reposado is so good. I've let a few people try it and there always blown away by how tasty it is.

@shotbycamron Год назад

I’ve tried all the big hitters, every variation (blanco,repo,anejo) and OCHO REPOSADO is the best Tequila hands down (especially for a beginner palette) So much Agave and smoothness. Literally just a smooth agave bomb with great palate & good notes of citrus/floral… SUPREMELY UNDERRATED! NEVER HEARD PPL TALKING ABOUT OCHO REPO, only the Blanco & Anejo. I encourage anyone looking to find a good tequila, FIND OCHO REPOSADO! And a close second is G4… the rainwater freshness taste is to die for..

@vladfast1382 9 месяцев назад

For everybody saying that blind tasting introduces other biases - what bias can there be except pure taste and smell? If fortaleza doesn't taste as good as Arette, but wins in every other category, then you pay extra for exactly this category. Am I missing something? I imagine there could be some bias in expecting fortaleza to be in it's own tier, but then none tastes like what you imagined/remembered and you are lost.

@mike212916 Год назад

Why is it that one arette repo is $62 for a 750ml and the other is $28 for a 1L. They both have the same exact name but the bottle looks different. I wonder if one has additives..

@eniportatropine Год назад

The $62 is likely the artesanal suave which uses traditional stone/brick oven cooking, compared to the regular version (tested here) which uses autoclave cooking. The entire arette line is a confirmed additive free brand.

@rawtruthisahardpilltoswall6180 Год назад

Great video. Arette is bomb. I grab the blanco suave all the time but that reposado is fire for around $30

@pain1058 Год назад

I just started becoming a tequila amateur and I gotta say I got my hands on Mijenta blanco, G4 blanco, Ocho Blanco/Repo, so far my favorite Blanco is G4 and the Ocho Repo is my favs. Mijenta Blaco is honestly 2nd. Now I want to get my hands on Arrete. I will be getting my hands on El Tesoro Repo and hopefully Fortaleza blanco/Repo this weekend👌🏾

@pain1058 Год назад

Also G4 Blanco at my local liquor drive they cost $69.99 lmao wtfff type of shit is this. I like G4 a ton but 70.. nope I’ll do 55 at most l. I found some other liquor stores that sell at 46 so that’s a good deal imo.

@mike212916 Год назад

with my blind test G4 was always on the bottom. El tesoro and Fort were #1 and #2. I notice everytime I have a blind test the results I slightly different though. But G4 usually always on teh bottom.

@steveh.3370 Год назад

The Mijenta blanco is a beautiful sipper.

@davidoramirezmusic Год назад

Big fan of Mijenta. I will say I prefer the Blanco over their Repo. Honestly a better sipper in its purest blanco state!

@shmoo1000 Год назад

I've always been curious, could we get a behind the scenes look at what the area you guys shoot these videos in looks like? Could be a good different future video

@lrvogt1257 Год назад

I enjoyed that very much. I like Arette but It's been hard to find it near me lately... but there it was so I bought the repo and the blanco. The repo is excellent but I prefer the more intense agave of the blanco. I like that they are less peppery than many others.

@tommyt2926 8 месяцев назад

Ocho is my go to then El tesoro . That's my opinion . Great video guys !!

@cleb.2465 Год назад

I tried the Ocho and I wasn’t impressed, it has a bitter component to it, I still prefer Fortaleza. I will use my Ocho for making margaritas

@pezzshnitsol Год назад

Green being Fortaleza wasn't surprising to me. I think the anejo is far and away their best product, personally I've never been as high on their blanco and reposado

@davidhenry6273 Год назад

The new kid on the block for blancos is Lalo. Be sure to check this one out.

@thewirednerv Год назад

Arette just went up in price

@jasoncoates1835 Год назад

I've always argued that blind tests don't eliminate bias, they simply introduce a different one. Fortaleza sounds like Four Roses, which somehow always fails in blinds and yet remains a favorite, even for people who rank it poorly in blinds. Outliers tend to fare badly in flights like this, I think.

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

Yes!

@rangeradams Год назад

Agree

@craigalexander4532 8 месяцев назад

That was very entertaining. Thank you

@dchotze1774 Год назад

Great blind challenge! Thank you! Can't wait to see the Anejo challenge! I just blinded three Rep's and the Ocho was the best (La Mule) then Siete Leguas and Arette came in last...maybe I got a bad batch (#LD042210). Trying to find Mijenta, Volans, Cascahuin and Cazcanes reps this weekend!

@granterd Год назад

Absolutely love your videos! Y'all are the best by far. Please don't ever change.

@Dustbrother1099 Год назад

Great video and blind. I have a bottle of Arette repo and have yet to open it. Fortaleza is sooo overrated. I think it’s hilarious how people chase it. Shocked about G4. That was fun!

@lozinho333 Год назад

Wow, very cool, when’s the Anejo version of this video coming?

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

It should be out in the coming month or two - stay tuned!

@jaypritchett17 Год назад

I was thinking you guys should do a dalmore drink through. The normal age statements + cigar malt + king alexander. Then the 50 yo too just for the fun of it. Haha maybe not the last one.

@ezsmile Год назад

wonder how fortaleza and ocho will place when you do the anejos. Great video, great channel guys!

@CuriosityPublic Год назад

Cheers, thanks! Looking forward to our añejo battle!

@jackbrady86 Год назад

A guy in Reddit recently told me that Arette Reposado is godlike and I thought he was kidding. I'm definitely picking up a bottle soon

@hitchyourwagon4720 Год назад

Entertaining segment. I seem to detect a greater degree of batch to batch variation in G4 products. Curious if anyone else feels the same about G4?

@epic4747 6 месяцев назад

Yeah arette is great but remember these are some of the best repos in the world! So you wont lose drinking any of these exceptional tequillas!

@boethiansurfer4891 10 месяцев назад

Fun show!! Maybe add Siete Leguas next time!

@DeeDee_Says 8 месяцев назад

What's up with the ad coming on, just as you were about to reveal #1, like a TV show. 🤣

@Watchman999 Год назад

Do it again

@BobSmith-yo6ib Год назад

So, not sure you guys have ever mentioned the area you reside in? Folks have commented prices in their area (usually east coast) are higher than your quoted prices. Living in the L.A. area, I have several shops with good price and then we have TJ too.😊

@fernandobenavidez3809 Год назад

Haha this was fun to watch

@MezsiaH Месяц назад

I bet if y'all do a blind with the same brands(reposado) with all new bottles (possibly new lots), you'll get a different answer. Regardless all great brands!!

@peterkeigwin847 Год назад

I wonder if the special Widow Jane Ocho would beat these. Just picked one up and it tastes divine

@DzigaJerkov 9 месяцев назад

In Southern California, Arette blanco is $21.99 and the repo is $23.99. Crazy you got it for 40

@fedupwthursht420 Год назад

Ok I have to know Does Jules ever change? Is this on purpose?

@steveh.3370 Год назад

Arette Repo is delicious. Thanks for introducing it to me..

@wissor33 8 месяцев назад

My experience with fortaleza is that the second and third sip are better than the first one.

@mistermetaverse7267 22 дня назад

You must try Mijenta!

@robotusa88 7 месяцев назад

I wish I could find that stuff in the price range you mentioned. Add $30 around the Boston area.

@RA-gy1ft Год назад

I was very surprised by the results!

@sliceofsparta8985 9 месяцев назад

My local liquor stores aren't anywhere CLOSE to those prices, I'm so jealous!

@jackjd8106 6 месяцев назад

I'd like to see how pasote reposado would compare to these ones in a blind tasting.

@ericallnight Месяц назад

and straight to the store to get some Arette I go LOL

@drgallup Год назад

Is it OK to drink bourbon while watching tequila tastings?

@pickleeater3102 Год назад

It's ALWAYS ok to drink bourbon.

@john523batman Год назад

What website/app do you recommend for buying/finding hard to find tequilas, bourbons, etc.? I see that you guys seem to be using a site to buy some of these bottles.

@benvieira3895 Год назад

Looks like I'm buying a bottle of Arette after work tonight

@TheMRBOSS899 Год назад

Arette to me is still my favorite both blanco and resporato

@davpart7723 Год назад

Wow 🤩!!!!!!

@jeffpittman8725 11 месяцев назад

Tequila and tacos!

@lrvogt1257 7 месяцев назад

I was re-watching since I'd recommended Arette so often and I kind of take issue with the idea that blind tests are distorting your results. Maybe you just don't like what you think you should like. Knowing what you're drinking is setting up expectations that are distorting your results.
