Thanks for the review. These Brands all want to compete against Clase Azul.. But this wont work. cheers!

How does Siete Leguas D'Antanio XA compare to your top 5?

Hi i have a recerva de la familia and my question is how i can storage vertical

I like it very much. I’m a scotch drinker and I got it for me and guests and last weekend in it up some limes and poured shots with it and they couldn’t get enough. I was drinking the repasado.

Can't pronounce food items correctly

Got it for 120 same box you have, still haven't tried it

Excellent review…Best tequila ever!

Love the video production skillz. The lack of burn and very vanilla forward taste seems like it would contain additives.

Great and funny review! Subscribed. I'm a whiskey nerd and tequila noob, but $450 sounds wild

Tapatío excelencia

Rey sol extra añejo is my favorite , is this better than that?

Siete Leguas is the original producer of Patron. Same tequila in a different bottle and Label. Patron took production to a different distilery and 7 Leguas continued producing with their same traditional method.

best of alll time

This was lower than 1800 silver. I am getting into tequila sipping. I didn't know about TMM ratings. I purchased a magazine a few weeks ago at the supermarket. Basically promoting the hipster lifestyle. I bought a mini bottle at the liquor store, Patron Blanco Nom 1492. I am not an expert but I felt Patron was smooth. The 1800 didn't grab me. Thank you for your info.

Hahaha dad's are going to sneak a flask shaped like a cartridge magazine into their kid's soccer game?

Dope! Glad I got to meet you guys this past week! 🥃

Moving would be the best option

Thanks for taking one for the team. Your struggle is real.

Haven’t had the Tapatio but just picked up some Cazcanes No. 10 still strength. What’s your preference?

Tapatio is a quality tequila salud!

You’ve convinced me. I see it priced at $120 in the north Chicago area. You said this is in your top 3 blancos. What’s your other two? Drinking Primo 1861 while watching your vid.

Dude, you’re a boss. Funny as hell and great palate.

Have you done any mezcal reviews? There is such a wide array of tastes that it is hard for me to compartmentalize and know which ones to try. Even on Mezcal Reviews it’s a bit confusing.

Very impressive…except for 818. Might you be to blame for the Fortaleza shortage?

I really appreciate you shedding light on this issue as I must have been living under a rock. I am somewhat new (3 years) to the tequila community but have fully embraced experts such as yourself as well as Tequila Matchmaker. Keep up your great insights. I credit you for my bottle of Tears. Respect!

You have the worst Spanish accent I've ever heard.😅

One cool thing I learned about Fortaleza is that if you remove the label from the bottle you’ll find the Los Abuelos logo etched out in the glass. As a way to sort of get back at the people who wouldn’t let them use the name they originally wanted. But hold on there, these days Fortaleza Blanco now goes for $80/bottle. It’s now quite difficult to find because of its high demand and the difficulty the distillery has keeping up with it. Another comparable Blanco I really enjoy that more affordable is G4. It’s flavor profile, in my opinion, is very similar to Fortaleza, and it’s additive-free.

You have convinced me to get this…

Tequila ocho is amazing, I have to try their other expressions

It was a better steal when it was under $40!

I think the drummer for tool is a partner in this brand

i bought 3 and i want to buy more so i can always have a sip for years when i want it!!

Oh, 818... Nah, I'm kidding. Got my basement bar stocked with a few bottles of Santo Fino and Tres Agaves, unfortunately not too many more zero additive options at the local liquor stores.

It's a cocktail made from combining grapefruit-soda/lemonade/pop and gin. Needs to be absolutely ice cold (best if you put it in the freezer before drinking) and best served with the glass FULL of ice. In finland bars have 3 taps. one beer, one cider and one long drink. Finns usually call it "lonkero" which also happens to translate to "tentacle". Tastes like soda. Will get you effed up REAL quick if you don't know what you're doing 🤣

So from what I understand and remember Dobel Diamante is a Blend of Anjeo Reposado and Blanco (unknown ratios) and the 1st too do so

Ain’t nothing better than Mexican food. My thoughts.

Why would I even consider drinking this stuff: 1) it’s made at a contract distillery (NOM 1438) that makes 197 other brands. The distillery is not open to tours, so obviously there is no transparency about how this stuff is made. 2) Not additive free. 3) marketed to a demographic that I’m not part of 4) not overly good reviews from you or others. 5) too much better juice to buy at a better price.

This guy can't pronounce the words correctly

Still giving one away? 🤣 Great review bro! I love the Los Abuelos/Fortaleza brand! Any idea on how many WB's were made each year? I do know it varies each year.

If you really like this blanco then you have to try their extra anejo it is pricey but I guarantee you will not have tasted better I can't wait till I see your face when you try it.

This holds my top spot for the number one Blanco. It is really the pinnacle of Blanco tequilas. I bought two bottles.

I was wondering if you can do an updated list for 2024 if your palette has changed.

Never reviewed the product promised in the title. Change the title so that it represents what the video is about!

Love Tequila Ocho! the first tequila that made me realize it’s as complex as scotch

Makes me wonder if there is a conspiracy by the Tequila industry who use the additives to tarnish Tequila Matchmakers initiative? I love the information put out by the Tequila Matchmaker and I too learnt a lot from their web site as well as Additive Free program. Can they run this program from the USA (Outside the jurisdiction of Mexico Govt) ?

I am a rum man and I am looking to branch out into tequila. Now in the rum world, this aging and charcoal filtering technique is EXTREMELY common, most “white” rums (outside of some rhum agricoles and jamaican rums) are aged and charcoal filtered to remove color. It is generally acknowledged that they take the lower quality aged spirits and choose those to filter. These are very good rums for me, I’m a white rum sipper, I love the charcoal filtered style. When I heard of cristalino, I was excited because I assumed that would be a good jumping off point for me into tequila. I was completely appalled to see they were MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE AÑEJOS?! For what I’m used to, the ‘aged and charcoal filtered’ styled are the least expensive in the line up by 2-300% compared the añejos. I think cristalino could be a totally legit style, but it definitely needs to be much cheaper than their añejo for me to consider it. Looking into nice blancos.

I hope they move to America and reinvent themselves….Tequila Matchmaker changed my life for the better!

Hard to impossible to find in the northern suburbs of Illinois. Went to the Kenosha Woodman's Grocery in Wisconsin, found a bottle of the Blanco. Tried it on Wednesday, like drinking heaven, best tequila I have ever tasted. A little expensive now, but worth it.
