Tequila

Which is your favorite, and why?

Recently had some Three Generations, and it was by far the best agave juice I have ever sampled.
It beat the Patron and 1800 hands down in my opinion.
Smooth as silk, and for lack of a better word, plain yummy.

Re: Tequila

El Tesoro (Anejo or Blanco)

Smooth and tasty for sipping or shooting or mixing

Re: Tequila

Patron anejo - the smoothest tasting tequila I have ever tried (the only premium tequila I really have experience with). Everytime I ask for a Patron margarita, the bartender looks at me like I am crazy. I know you are not suppose to put topshelf tequila in a margarita, but try it next time, you will not be disappointed.

Aaron,

I like Patron silver and I love Patron Anejo and Reposado but I REALLY LOVE El Tesoro Anejo. Give it a try.

I also love Patron Anejo but scottie is "the man" so if he says El Tesoro is the way to go I'm sure going to give it a try. Since I'm taking a short sabbatical from cigar buying (not smoking 'em, just buying 'em) maybe tequila buying will tide me over.

Sounds like I might have to try a new tequila as well.

Was a costco a while back and they had 1.75L bottles of patron anejo, almost convinced my wife that we needed that much tequila. Decided to get the three pack sampler instead. Since then, I have spent most of my money on cigars instead of liquor. Figure there is less calories smoking a cigar as oppose to making magaritas every night.

I've had a bottle of the El Tesoro de Don Felipe Anejo for probably ten years. I originally purchased it when I was in the process of perfecting my margarita recipe but realized after I bought it that it was not to be used in such a pedestrian manner (whether it is even necessary to use fifty- or hundred-dollar-a-bottle tequila for a really good margarita is debatable). The complex aroma, rather distinct oaky flavor and bold finish this liquor has is not useful for a margarita or much any other mixed drink, since it overpowers anything else you put with it.

It is worthwhile for anyone finding their tastes in tequila to try, though in a snifter, not a shot glass. I drink this only rarely, not because I don't like it but because I find it so distinct that I have to be in the mood for it. Should my team beat the team of volfan, for example, perhaps I might find time to down a dram this weekend! Heck, even if we lose I might break out a little.

Re: Tequila

Patron Anejo is my favorite sipping tequila. I don't mind it in a margarita , but it's to damned expensive for such a luxury. I use Sauza Hornitos for my mixed drink needs.

Another killer product is Citronge, made by Patron. It is a less costly version of Cointreau, and I think it tastes better. Great in a margarita....
