You’ll miss a bunch of great information, but if you want to jump directly to the tasting notes:
Blanco is at the 4:03 mark
Reposado is at the 8:47 mark
Añejo is at the 14:00 mark
I'm not one to usually reach for a celebrity endorsed spirit, but after tasting the new Teremana line of tequilas, I thought I'd share them with you. The celebrity behind this brand is the famous wrestler and now actor, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. From what I've seen, he seems to really be invested in the tequilas (and not just literally). Starting with the name, "Tere" refers to the soil/earth, and "Mana" comes from the Polynesian/Samoan cultures and means sacred or spiritual. Each of these tequilas begin with Highland grown agaves that are baked in stone ovens before being shredded by a roller mill. The juices are then fermented in open tanks before finally being distilled in their handmade copper pot stills. The Blanco just gets proofed down before bottling. The Reposado is rested in ex-bourbon barrels for probably about 6 months (I couldn't find an exact length), and the Añejo spends 1 to years in those barrels. All are bottled at 80 proof and their pricing is very reasonable - $30 for the Blanco, $33 for the Reposado, and $40 for the Añejo.
To watch all my videos, add-free & get a 2-week head start on finding special bottles like this, join me at www.patreon.com/liquorhound. There you get to watch my videos before they're released on my RU-vid channel! Currently, I’m releasing a new review every 2 weeks (on Thursdays) first on Patreon, and then 2 weeks later it goes up on RU-vid. This allows me to use my Patreon channel as a launch platform - giving my Patrons that 2-week advantage. You’ll also be able to access to the large private add-free review library (that aren't available on my RU-vid channel), get bonus content/videos, be able to message me directly, and be eligible for giveaways. But regardless of where you’re watching, I want to thank all of my viewers! It’s that combination of my Patrons and the RU-vid ad views that have allowed me to keep my independence and self-purchase the bottles I review. By doing so, I hope you feel safe in knowing you’re getting my 100% unbiased and honest opinions.
As of December 2021, my current bottle count is over 2,600. I am a Certified Specialist of Spirits and have also been accredited by the Tequila Regulatory Council (CRT). I've been actively collecting for more than two decades and what started as a small basic home bar has transformed (with the help and understanding of my wonderful wife) into this collection and career. Speaking of my career, our new “Saints Alley Bourbons” are on most Total Wine shelves and they've been popular! We just finished bottling Batch 2, and given my knowledge and high standards, you know I’m working hard with my team to keep giving you some amazing releases! Thanks for watching and remember to please drink responsibly. Cheers!
