Total wine and more is pushing Pantalones like crazy people, in-store adds and standees.
Thanks for the warning, I'll avoid it like the plague.
Avoid almost everything that Total Wine employees push on you!
@@RossDeGrate agreed!
Only thing worth your time that is "Spirits Direct" is Codigo Blanco, El Teq Mixto and the 375ml bottle of El Teq Platinum. EVERYTHING ELSE, is unconfirmed ADD free and not rated well.
I am starting to wonder if Total Wine is financially behind this brand. At my Total Wine in Austin TX on Brodie Lane they have a HUGE poster of Pantalones. Also, the bottles and artwork look like other Total Wine brands. Something is fishy here.
@@Seriously140yes like el padrino. Something is odd about that brand.
I’m convinced this is an elaborate troll of casamigos. They recreate some of the same marketing but without their pants which is hilarious
I get all my knowledge from this page. Ty for always being honest and transparent
You crack me up Lui and save me from drinking BAD tequila. Your life has TRUE meaning!
I was at Total Wine recently and they were giving out samples of Pantalones. I was disappointed because the flavor was much too rich and it had a weird texture to the way it coats the mouth.
A few weeks later I asked a store employee for a recommendation between El Tesoro Reposado and Siete Leguas Añejo, because I wanted to buy one and then the other at a later time. But he immediately said “don’t buy those, buy Pantalones instead, it’s the best and hottest one on the market now”. I immediately saw a red flag because he was clearly trying to push that product. After that I left and bought a bottle of Tequila Ocho Reposado at a different store, and I loved it.
You chose wisely. Next time your out to get some, definitely go for El Tesoro Repo, my 2nd favorite Tequila.
@@violentneon2999what’s your #1 favorite tequila?
@@dave1986R Fortaleza Blanco. Could sip that all daaaaay.... #3 be Mijenta Blanco
@@violentneon2999 I love Fortaleza, found a bottle of the Reposado at Vallarta Supermarket about 7 months ago. It was the only bottle left in stock that day and I haven’t seen one since. I really want to try the Blanco and the Añejo. Wish me luck finding one of those.
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Mijenta as well.
@@dave1986R Yea got mine last Nov outta sheer luck and friendly chat at my local Total Wine. I can get Fortaleza from time to time at local liquor store but they want $70 and id rather continue to expand my palate and buy other stuff first. But when I did have it it was awesome and i put it up to my fav blancos and it earned its top spot!
Thanks for the straight Forward information Brother 😎✌️👍
I won't buy any celebrities tequila, rather support the farmers and distilleries, celebrities don't need my $$$ for half-assed tequila
Yes!! Yes!! Yes!! I have waited months to see you review this. I knew what you would say the moment I walked in a store and saw a HUGE display for a tequila called Pants!! Never tried it. Never will. It's PANTS!! YUCK.
Horrendous as the name! I try not to buy celebrities tequila brands, specially one that tells me that’s the first word in Spanish that they learned and sounded good!😂it makes no sense!!
Thanks for taking one for the team!
Can you do a review of Casa Azul Organic Tequila
Tried these at Total Wine, I thought that they almost had a Barqs cream soda kind of flavor to them, one more than the other, TW had some promotional sale going on, but I passed and went for the G4 Blanco, best buy ever.
Great video. Thank you for reviewing this tequila so I don’t have to try it.
Happy you enjoyed it!
Lui, I was just kidding when I suggested another celebrity tequila video! You don’t have to continue to torture yourself!
I always thought the pictures of Matthew McConaughey & his wife riding through an Agave field on motorcycles with no pants on was kind of funny. To me it was kind of like making fun of Casamigos.
Damn... Didn't Matthew McConaughey already have Wild Turkey Longbranch 😂
He should compete with Diddy since Diddy had Ciroc and Deleon🤣
Not a big fan of celebrity brands, but I respect these guys for going organic. You don't want to know but, almost every agave farmer is spraying the plants with a sh!t ton of glyphosate.
should have called it Sin Pantalones. They totally missed this possibility.
Malibu suntan lotion 😂 i can smell it now.
Can't people find something else to drink thanTequila if they don't like real natural Tequila.
That's how I feel!
It’s also crazy that the additive free tequilas taste way better and are often cheaper than the adulterated tequilas
I agree. Makes you wonder then why so many drink stuff made with Jose Cuervo.
@@lucamorrone6388 marketing marketing marketing.
Nope!!! Thanks for the review. Had kinda high hopes for this. 🤷🏻♀️ Coconut?!?! lol.
Did buy me a bottle of mijenta reposada. Amazing tequila.
I also thought the name was weird, but later found out that Mathew and his wife said " it's the best thing we've ever done with our pants ON". I thought it would be trash, but it is actually not. Try it for yourself before you just listen to somebody else tell you it's good or not. It's %100 high quality organic blue agave. There are zero additives. The sweetness is from the organic agave.
I am 1 minute 39 seconds into this video. I’m going to state a hypothesis and guess that, based on this branding, drinking this tequila will taste no better than chewing on a fresh pair of Levi’s. Will edit when testing is complete.
Edit: Yep.
Thanks!
I always like your honest reviews of these celebrity tequilas
What I don’t understand is how a distillery that makes an awesome tequila, also makes a bad one ? Or they add the bad stuff after they buy it? Isn’t that not good advertising for the distillery?
It's not the distiller's choice often. It's the brand owners. That's exactly what I wanted to highlight by comparing them. Sometimes the brand comes in and says " I want it to taste like this " and then throws the best work of the distillery out the window.
Excellent tip from Lui- compare the color of the Reposado to a legit Reposado to know if there are shenanigans going on
Thank you for this review, will definitely avoid this garbage! 👍
you should review mala vida!
More tourist Tequila!!! Lol
People who buy this due to amazing marketing are leaving the good stuff for the rest of us!
On my way home after purchasing some bottles, I placed one of the bags containing Cazcanes No. 7 añejo on the ground. The Cazcanes tipped over and immediately cracked like ice. I was able to rinse out a cup and save about 300ML before the bottle completely came apart. 😢😂🤦♂️
Cheers!!🥃
Agreed. Sampled it begrudgingly at Total Wine yesterday. Surprisingly, not as bad as I had expected, but far from anything I would pay to drink. Zero personality with plenty of cloyingly sweet artificial flavor.
Totally agree with your review Lui. was not impressed at ALL!!
bourbon wasn't enough? he's now an expert on tequila? 😢 Even if its good. distillery, distributor, dealer and MM all need to make money on that bottle. everyone do the math.
I like Santo Fino, and it's still a reasonably priced option, so I don't mind Sammy Hagar getting a cut of my purchase, but that's pretty much the exception to the rule. Most celebrity beverages seem to be just another form of overpriced, low quality merch to be bought up by fans who trust a famous person over their own taste buds.
Do any Brazilian celebrities have their own cachaça brands? Like are annita or Blaya spending their saturdays on a distillery or something?
Hahahaha there are some celebs making cachaça but also not great stuff. If Anitta had a cachaça id have to try it 😂
Yes we should all drink rotgut liquors - we've been taking this whole taste/quality distillers thing way to seriously 🙄 Great advice Matthew!!
i am currently also not wearing pants so i am very interested in this tequila
I don’t think this guy like celebrity brands of Tequilas
Man these celebrities are so talented, actors musicians authors cologne perfume clothing shoes alcohol cigars they can do it all
And willing to tell you how smart they are on politics 😂
@@paulg7964 it amazes me that anybody buys what they are selling
I was at total wine and a group of friends were looking for tequila, I recommend el Tesoro if they wanted something good then the total wine employee showed up recommended "pantalon es" that's the one they choose to buy 😅
Same thing just happened to me and now I’m watchin this and goin thru the comments 🤦🏾 I feel like a dumbass, I let the total wine employee play me. I was gonna buy a bottle of Casamigos and I let him talk me outta it. I’m still drink this pants tequila tho. Spent $40 on it.
all right , all right & all right ! 😆😆😉
Cue all the drunk suburban woman saying “Look I speak Spanish….pantalones”
Sorry to break this to you Lui, but Cazcanes just came in last place on a five reposado blind tasting by Curiosity Public trio. Tapatio was first place, followed by Seite Leguas, El Tequileno and Don Fulano then Cazcanes reposado. The high end tequila like Atanasio and Cazcanes are more hype then substance. Me, I’m a big fan of Mala Vida, El Tequileno, 123 Organic Tequila and Seite Leguas. Looking forward to trying Tau Tequila and Cobalto tequila in the near future.
Cobalto is underrated. The Blanco is top tier imho
Sorry to break it to you, but I’ve blind tasted Cazcanes’s Blancos and their barrel rested expressions with those very same brands and many others, and Cazcanes scored top in many of my blind tastings. Especially their higher proof No.9 line 😙🤌🏽🤤
I love Public Curiosity, too, I learn so much about the Tequila spirit through them, but as fellow Tequila TH-camrs like Tequila Hombre & Lou Agave have put it, blind taste them yourself to see which are your favorites. Don’t just take their words for it.
Tres Agaves also tastes great for their price. It’s even ranked higher for me than Lalo in blind tastes.
Anyway, maybe you blind tasted Cazcanes against those same brands, too, and you feel the same way as Public Curiosity, which is all fine, but I’ve learned it’s best to come from personal tasting experience whenever you get the chance.
I’ll admit, though, Cszcanes’s No.7 line is okay. Their No.9 line and their No.10 really punch through even when I blind tasted them again other similar proof tequilas.
@@PanchoKnivesForever Yea when they did a Blind tasting Repos and Arette Repo came in first I question their palates a bit. Same with the one OP mentioned and Tapatio gets first?? Yea... I mean those are tasty tequilas but...not very complex. In the end of the day it all comes down to personal preference.
I totally get it. The finish of Arette Repo is what got them, though. I tasted Arette Repo again for that reason, and now I do agree with Public Curiosity on it. However, the actually initial palate taste is just okay. I wouldn’t rate that top. But the finish is something special. I honestly have appreciated that in my earlier tequila tasting days, though.
Yes, the additives are a choice by the people selling it. They want that sweet, blandish kind of flavor. That's what the mass appeal is all about.
This is actually additive free. You guys are listening to a guy that knows not of what he's drinking. He also didn't sample the best one, the Anejo. It's a double gold medal winner.
They got caught with their pantalones down 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Everyone else's Total Wine recommend them shite, my guy gets me Fortaleza hidden in the back. We are NOT the same, Hahaha!👌
Makes sense why they told me the shipment never came in then.🤔😤
3 Amigos review
Question seems you dog all celebrity tequilas are there any you like ?
I did a video ranking every one I could get my hands on and gave my thoughts on that
Santo Fino and Codigo Still Strength. Only ones he cared for.
It’s actually not that bad
The label looks like a Total Wine store brand. Not good.
They see THE ROCK selling 2 million bottles of his swill and they want a piece of the action..
I had the Anejo. I wanted to like it because I like Matthew McConaughey but it just wasn't it for me.
Dang that sucks cus I love McConaughey and I feel like he would have put out a good product.
He did. You can't just believe everything someone puts on the internet. Try it for yourself. Make sure you try the Anejo, the best one and double gold medal winner.
I'm a rep for Pantalones. It is 100% additive free, so this video is misleading. The sweetness you are tasting is from the 100% organic high quality blue agave. You didn't even sample the best one, the Anejo, which is a double gold medal winner. It's rested in American oak whiskey barrels for 15 months. The viscosity is silky. You get the oils and flavor of the oak. Many bourbon lovers have told me that they enjoy the Anejo because of this. I'm usually a Reposado guy, but in this line the Anejo is the winner. You may not appreciate the flavor, but I have no problem selling it once the customer tastes it
Especially at it's price point of $50 for a quality Anejo.
Great review, but NO celebrity tequila, paying more for someone that doesn't have a clue about tequila. 🤷 My opinion.
At least you’re not paying for the gluten… cause it says gluten free.
In an interview, McConaughey said he named it Pantalones because he thought drinking this tequilla was "The most fun you could have with your pants on." Which is kind of a weak rationale for the name but okay?
Wow that's actually somehow worse than if he hadn't said anything at all
They're just trying to jump on the Tito's bandwagon with the gluten free label. That (and the fancy-colored cap) what sold that horrid vodka to the masses.
Kind of not surprised - the whiskey he shills for Wild Turkey is equally bad.
I was about to mention it.
Tight pants, I got my tight pants on.
If they didn’t use additives to make it different from the other tequilas at the same distillery then they couldn’t mark up the price as much because people might figure out they could get the same stuff for cheaper. But now people might see they can get better for cheaper! Jokes on them
Seems that all the celebs expressions are sweet, therefore targeting a younger demographic.
First ❤
Celeberty tequila is a mockery to the art of tequila but the distillery dont care they just want the 💰 which is sad.they should take pride in tequila instead of selling out.
And you can’t go to total Wine and liquors without them, trying to shove this stuff down your throat
NOT alright, alright, alright
Weird tequila… Won’t buy! Thanks Lui ! Bought a bottle of Cazcanes Blanco No.7, not opened yet!
have you ever tried cazadores? their reposado is an A tier at minimum. its a beautiful and bright palette with good minerality, a nice barrel hit, and an absolute agave BOMB.
Watching lui $hit on celebrity tequilas is just great
Celebrity tequila is all you need to know to stay away. Pantalones looks like something off an SNL skit.
It is so bad I can't even describe it. Avoid at all cost!
Heard it’s all organic. I don’t know why you taste artificial that’s weird.
It wasnt good...ill stick to arette
This is additive free, so no artificial color or flavorings.
Lol and where did you get that information 🙃
@Lui_Fern bro you can look it up on the website or on Google. Do your homework bro
Theres an alcohol aroma... smh...
Not Good
Feels like it all just a big joke.
To much talki g got bored waiting for him to get to the point
Not for everyone, I actually like the product because it is different
Is there any brand of a public person you wuold like?? I don’t think so. Firts. Pantalones in Mexico means HUEVOS. Means that you have pantalones you have nuts!! You get it!? Second. If you see a dark color is because the COSTUMER the person who is paing for it, in this case is Mathew. He liked that color. Question, do you know the process of how to make tequila!? The agave is sweet have natural sugar, or where do you think is the agave syrup? And this is from a guy that is from MEXICO the land of tequila. Hear this from a bartender / mixologist? Makes me wonder??
I am quite sure he does know the process of making tequila. Most locals in Mexico dont. Surprising but true. Additives dont have the same type of natural sweetness that you get from traditionally made tequila. Kind of like a Diet Coke when the aftertaste comes through.
@@ositofreitas the thing is… he is from Brasil!! He is not mexican 🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻
I certainly am from Brasil. But I have actually seen how tequila is made as well 😁
Believe he mentioned, at least twice, that he was at the distillery. So, knows how it's made and seen it with his own eyes.
Pantalones means pants, Not Huevos, which is balls and Cojones is Spanish.
It sounds like this tequila is as fake as Matthew Mcconaughey and his wife. I think Matt's last name says everything you need to know about the tequila(Mc CON aughey.)
It's actually no additives. This guy didn't do his homework, and actually doesn't know what he's spewing out on the internet. It's sad that so many just believe him instead of researching and tasting themselves.
