Great video! So nice meeting you yesterday Amy! Cinematography is on point. Would definitely recommend Tequila Ocho for another awesome additive free blanco
LIVIO!!! Awesome video!!! I love the childhood memories reference!! All of these look like great bottles. Chocolate and Tequila!?!? YES SIR!! CHEERS to you my brother!!!
Well done, Livio! Informative and entertaining, what could be better? I wish you had included Fortaleza, which is the brand I use; but, I know you can only do so many at one time. By the way, for some reason, a Tequila buzz is one of my two favorite buzzes (the other being Sake); so, enjoy! Ciao Livio!
Great video! However, additives do matter. They cheapen the product and brands like don julio charge high $$$. Clase Azul etc. products like El Tesoro will always be better because no additives and less expensive for a greater product
Now you're talking, I have really been getting into the different Tequila's out there... I was so stupid, I thought Jose Cuervo was the best one, lol. Maybe the cheapest, not close to any of these other ones. I never had any of these, but hopefully one day, some of these get really expensive, and thanks for the education, I feel a lot smarter, never knew any of this stuff! L45
Much respect to you, I subscribed because of your classy Grand Mariner video,But these Tequilas are all B level.Can you get Fortaleza,Tepozan,Gran Dovejo,Fuenteseca and the mighty mighty Calle Criollo 23...even siete leguas or G4
Thank you for the kind words, my friend. My channel is self-funded so most of my videos rely on friends and bottles I can get my hands on. All of tequilas you mentioned are incredible, it was just that I was unable to get my hands on those specific bottles. Cheers.
First timer. I carefully watched and listened to the video multiple times. I do agree with @jose-rome837 about additives. The issue: some brands are cutting corners to compete with quality rivals. The early agave harvesting produces an inferior product as agaves take approximately 7 years to reach minimal maturity. That maturity allows the agave to produce the richness, brix level, and complexity that is being robbed by companies harvesting up to 3 years too early. You also stated that the additives are not bad for us AND are ethical. I'm not sure there is 100% certainty that additives don't create a negative bodily impact. If it's man made, one should always exercise caution. Also, as the video was about the surging wave of "additive free (AF)" tequila, I feel these queations need addressed: 1. Why is AF tequila a big deal? 2. Who are the major players behind the AF movement? 3. When did it start, where are we now, and what direction is it going? 4. If additives aren't a big deal, why has there been a major brand refocusing to be additive free? 5. What organizations certify tequila as AF?? 6. What criteria certifies tequila as AF? Perhaps you could do a follow-up (Part 2)? Thanks for your video and your consideration.
