wow....you all need to go buy a bottle today...

Just saw this thread. Many good brands are mentioned here. But I think this is one is one of the best. Not so easy to find and not as good as the actuall Mexican brand ( if you can get your hands on the true Coralejo from Mexico you have to buy it ) but awesome never the less

Oh yeah Supergirl I think the dark side is calling you to come back and the experince is well worth the price of admission :spiderman:

This is good stuff too. Had 13 shots of the blanco on my birthday a year ago!

Cabo is good, but isn't worth the $$, IMHO.
Cuervo Gold, Sauza or Margaritaville for regular Margaritas
1800 for Better Margaritas
Shots? Patron, or Sauza Tres Generaciones
Dreams? Cuervo Reserva de la Familia
Nightmares? 3 Fingers, anything under ~$12/750ml, or anything you've never heard of...

This is an old post, but I love to talk about liquor just as much as cigars..

I love the following tequilas:

Herradura Sellecion Suprema
Patron Gran Platinum
(Both of these pretty much broke the bank, but they are worth it.. Just don't share too much cause it will be gone before you know it.. Special occasions only)

Jose Cuervo de la familia
Corzo Anejo or reposado
(Both also good and won't break you... Drink them neat and take your time)

Promise, no hangovers! I drank half a bottle with my homeboy and was free and clear the next day..

I like :

Patron Silver Chilled
Jose Cuervo Gold at Room Temperature

If you you really wan to test your luck try mescal with is the cheap unrefined form of tequila. Visions will come from that.If you you really wan to test your luck try mescal with is the cheap unrefined form of tequila. Visions will come from that.

Sorry for bringing back to life an old thread, but I wanted to see what ye blokes thought about tequila and upon reading this reply I must come between and speak the truth on mezcal. Mezcal is NOT a cheap unrefined tequila. THAT mezcal is worth a buck and obviously not good at all. But there's more to it than what ye might get in Tijuana. Mezcal is an artisan's making, without proper legislation (though that doesn't mean it's gotta be all moonshine), while tequila does have a legislation. As for good tequilas, here's a list I believe'll come in handy. In 2007, the tequilas that won the Diosa Mayahuel (Mayahuel goddess) award by the Mexican Academy of Tequila Tasters were:

BLANCO or SILVER
1st Place: Maestro Tequilero
2nd Place: Reserva 1800
3rd Place: Gran Centenario

*Honorable Mention
Arette
Cazadores
Don Julio
Espolon
Hacienda de Cristero
Pura Sangre
Siete Leguas
Special Mention: Chinaco

REPOSADO or RESTED
1st Place: Reserva 1800
2nd Place: Herencia de Plata
3rd Place: Espolon

*Honorable Mention
Campanario
Centinela
Gran Centenario Azul
Herradura
Honorable
La Cava de Don Agustin
Las Nuevas Trancas

AÑEJOS or AGED
1st Place: Reserva 1800
2nd Place: Maestro Tequilero
3rd Place: El Jimador

*Honorable Mention
Cazadores
Con Orgullo
Espolon
Gran Centenario
Herencia de Plata
Herradura
Regional

EXTRA AÑEJOS or PREMIUM
1st Place: Reserva de la Familia
2nd Place: Herradura Selección Suprema
3rd Place: Rey Sol

*Honorable Mention
Arette Gran Clase
D’Antaño Siete Leguas
Don Julio 1942
Herencia Histórico
Leyenda del Milagro

I believe these are all incredible tequilas ye should give a try to find out how Jose Cuervo is anything but tequila.

REPOSADO Reserva 1800 is about the only tequila I drink. I'm not a big tequila drinker but this one is good!
I think the Anejo and Extra Anejo Reserva is now on my shopping list.

I was introduced to Don Julio over the summer in Mexico and really enjoyed it.

Alfonso is making an excellent point about mezcal. Mezcal is basically tequila that can't be called tequila because it wasn't produced in Tequila proper. It is similar to the situation where Tenessee whiskey can't be called bourbon because it wasn't produced in Kentucky. There are a lot of really good mezcals out there.

My favorite is probably Sauza Triada, but I don't think they make it anymore. Spicy, peppery with a mild citrus finish. Will compliment any cigar with any of those characteristics.
