Classic! I recently went to San Louis Obispo, Ca. to visit my sister. I stopped at the local BevMo to pick up a bottle. The "Lock case had 818, Casa Amigos, Patron, Don Julio, etc.. But the kept the El Tesoro, Lalo, and El Tequileno (Anejo) was on the shelf... I laughed and grabbed the latter and went to checkout.
It's actually very good and not overpriced. Especially if you can find the single-barrel bottle. They make a really interesting Mezquila product as well.
Nice job Lui. Way to not hold any punches. Hope you've recovered from that 818 trauma. The reason I believe a lot of celebrity tequila has been doing so well is because people love to name drop and feel cool telling friends and family they bought it without actually caring if it's a well made tequila. Educating yourself on what goes into making a good tequila will make u think twice before you actually buy a celebrity tequila in the first place. 🙂
I want to express my appreciation for you and your channel Lui! Since watching your channel I've undergone a spiritual enlightening drinking good tasting tequila.
@@Lui_Fern all good! I’m an A/V nerd so just thought I’d give you some feedback. Thank you for this content. It’s really helped me get more into tequila. I’m hooked!
Another great video on Tequilas Lui ! Every Tequila lover should know your channel! I learned a lot about tequila watching your videos. Also very funny. Thanks!
I agree with you on the Santo. Should give the Mezquilla a try. Would love to hear what you have to say about that. (amazing in a good margarita) Remember that Sammy Hagar started Cabo Wabo tequila back around 2000. First tried in Mexico at his club and really loved it then. After he sold it there seemed to be a Don Julio effect on it if you know what I mean. To this day the best bottle I have ever had was a Cabo Wabo bottle on my 36th bday ( I am 55 now ). Of course I am older and wiser now and thanks to you have discovered some really amazing tequilas. Thank you
9:30 If I recall correctly, small batch usually refers that a "small" amount of barrels are blended together, and bottled as one batch. At least that's how it works in the whiskey world since small batch whiskey is a big thing. However, the term is also meaningless because "small" can mean anything and there's no regulation or standard to what "small" is equal to. A small batch for a mom and pop distillery can be pretty small, but "small" batch from a warehouse that stores millions of barrels is totally different.
Missed a good one, Number Juan. It is Ron White and a partner of his, I have been on a kick with it for several years. I like a tequila with a little pineapple juice and a lime wedge, im not tough enough to drink it neat haha
Jordans brand costs an arm and a leg and I ain't made of money 😂😂 nah, I actually filmed something at the store with it but it didn't really fit the vibe of this video and since I didn't buy it I didn't wanna include it.
@@Lui_Fern appreciate you taking the time to respond. I was going to try it at a bar, but they were charging $25 a pour. I passed. Because like you, not made of money! Lol.
No that has nothing to do with additives. Because the additives are added at the end of the process. Still strength just means that it was never cut with water to bring it down to about 40% ABV
Cabo Wabo WAS his. Sold in 2007. Cabo Wabo is now made at a different NOM, and is not that great. Santos is being made at the original NOM the original Cabo Wabo was when it belonged to Sammy Hagar.
I heard a rep talking about Codigo yesterday, too, lol. The part i heard is that Codigo only uses the first press of the agave. Gotta be honest i dont know what that means yet. I heard him in passing.
I agree with all of your takes on these except Dos Primos somewhat. I actually haven't had their repo so I can't comment on what you drank on video (I've read mixed reviews of it - so "meh" is probably a good average). But I have had a bottle of their blanco and was pleasantly surprised that I liked it as much as I did. There are definitely better blancos out there, but I thought it was solidly decent. I enjoyed it in cocktails mostly. Thought it was good as a sipper too.
Great video! Definitely consider a part deux with Ambhar, Casa Azul,, Casa Noble, DeLeon, Prospero, Cincoro. There are more celebrities in need of humbling.
Casa Noble used to be my favorite, but it seems to me that when they changed the bottles, they changed the juice, too. I still look for the old school short, square bottles.
LUI!! You were doing so good being semi “positive” on celebrity tequilas then BOOM Garbage water😂🤣😹 I want to try that Codigo Still Strength. The chill after Lobos😂 I never knew skittles were palate cleansers…I will invest, particularly in the Wild Berry, family size lol Fun video🤭
What's sad is most of these celebrity brands are all I have available to me locally. The only tequila I can get that is additive free is Tres Agaves, which was a revelation as I'd only had tequila with additives before. BTW I have to admit your reactions to the bad tequilas are hilarious.
I thought Santo was only a "mezquila". Didn't realize they also made a straight tequila version. I was hesitant about Guy's involvement, but Sammy Hagar has been in the tequila game for decades now. He was responsible for Cabo Wabo.
Came here to say the same thing. I’m surprised he didn’t bring it up. Pretty sure Sammy Hagar had his foot in that door LONG before any other celebrity did
Thanks Lui for suffering thru "Garbage water"- BTW congratulations on getting married. I guess the video from Italy was tied to that event. It's interesting that you did call a couple of these celeb tequilas "Decent". I have never tasted them (nor will I). I guess Sammy has his Cabo Wabo, so perhaps he's been a promoter, and ended up doing a decent job. I am still sticking to Cimarron and Altos Olmeca (for cocktails), and Other good stuff for sipping (such as G4, Fortaleza, Terralta, Volans or Tequila Ocho).
Thank you friend! I posted the video about Italy earlier this week on here. I went shopping for Tequila in Florence. And yeah I think that's your safest bet about tequilas as well 😂😂
It was refreshing to see at least Midland and George Straight have good/decent tequila and be additive free. All of them being from Texas they probably have at least a cultural respect and appreciation for Mexico.
Love to FINALLY see someone who is not afraid to say it how it is. I have seen to many channels praising a lot of this garbage. Thanks Lui, I am back to El Tesoro as my go to , that I never should have abandoned years ago.
I literally laughed the entire video 😂😂😂. The 818 reminded me of a Cristalino. I remember when I thought I liked cristalino’s until I was introduced to a real Añejo.
Santo Fino is actually pretty good...if you put that juice in an old school Cabo Wabo bottle the same people saying 'meh' or 'ok' would be flipping for it. Main downside is that it's a little expensive compared to other really good options.
It's not surprising that Hagar's tequila would actually be decent. He was the first celebrity to have his own tequila branding, beating Clooney to the punch by over two decades when he founded Cabo Wabo in 1990.
Small Batch is just a marketing term, it's also used in the Whiskey industry.. And yes, "strangely" (note the quotes) Small Batch is often used by very big companies x)
The fact that he drinks Lunazul it already tells me we don’t drink the same. But I’m sure he knows more than me on these tequilas. But I actually like the Rocks tequila. I spent like 45 $ on it. Made a great cocktail mixer.
Never stop telling the truth Lui, as well as keeping us informed and entertained!🍻 Thanks to you I have had so many wonderful and delicious tequilas! (As well as saved so much money from avoiding celeb trash) Insolito is prob the only one that is pretty good.(Just tried their Repo)Especially for the price and presentation. Everything else is a pass for me.
@@Lui_Fern All praise is hard earned, friend. Also what are your opinions on Primo 1861 now that you got to try it? And how would you compare it to it's El Pandillo brothers, Volans and G4?
@@Lui_Fern I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Should def do a video review of it. I enjoyed it very much as well and should add it to my short list to get again. In the meantime I got the "Illusive" Fortaleza to sip. Now THAT *chefs kiss* is as extraordinary as you have said it to be! 👌
The store employee at Total Wine praised Matthew McConoughey's brand so I bought it. I haven't tried it yet, but I started watching reviews of celebrity brands, and they've all been mostly positive. Glad to see the negative reviews lol.
I was always curious about trying Sammy Haggar and Guy Fieri's Santo tequila since I like to drink Sammy Haggar's Cabo Wabo tequila. But just out of curiosity, have you tried Cabo Wabo, and if so, what are your thoughts?
Lui the reason the rock sold so much of the teremana is because they have a deal with the biggest apple bees operator. The Flynn Group buys 80 percent of all the rock's tequila for their hundreds of apple bees for a huge discount. The tequila has great distribution but it doesn't sell well anywhere.
I I'm not sure if Flecha Azul had changed anything since you made this video but it looks like they have sent their tequila to tequila match maker and they now have the label of certified addictive free
Yeah I saw that recently as well. I'm not sure. I know the one that I tasted did not taste additive free but maybe they changed it. I trust the folks that's kill a matchmaker so maybe they did
@Lui_Fern I'm starting to do some reviews on Twitter X. Are you active there? I've searched and found a few accounts with your name and profile pic. I'm not sure if you have posters already. I'm not active on TH-cam but if you're interested in collaborating on X, let me know.
I have never had a celebrity endorsed tequila.. and honestly is it really worth buying? I admit I have had celebrity endorsed Whiskey and Bourbon which were worse than swamp water.
I genuinely do not believe that most celebrity tequilas are worth buying cuz even the ones that are good. I would actually way rather people drink other better options that taste way better and are usually cheaper. So even the ones that are doing it right. I still find what they're doing a little price in comparison to some better brands
@@Lui_Fern thank you for sharing this with me. Unfortunately when it comes to Tequila that I have enjoyed. It becomes too expensive or I can't find the brands I have enjoyed. So I start from scratch again as they say
Sammy Hagar started making tequila back in 1996 when he had at the time his brand Cabo Wabo. He has since sold it and now has Santo. By far the best celeb tequila I have had all 3 of them were delicious
The problem is so many people have untrained Coca Cola palates. They want sweet stuff that gets them drunk. Plus they ice it down to the point where you lose flavor. Like bud and Miller lite lol. Great video though
Nah they're different distilleries. But Kevin Harts is made at the same place that makes Jose Cuervo so that should tell you all you need to know right there.
Nah they're different distilleries. But Kevin Harts is made at the same place that makes Jose Cuervo so that should tell you all you need to know right there.
Just curious. Do you carry Casamigos, Don Julio and Clase Azul at your restaurant? I mean, business is business and a fool and his money are soon parted
It's not that I forgot it's that I don't have $300 to spend on crap tequila😂😂 nah but seriously I had filmed a bit at the liquor store and forgot to add it in about cincoro. But you're right for me to have done it completely I would've needed to have tasted that one as well
Unfortunately, I've tasted these at work as well. I wish I could say I haven't. The Gran Coramino was probably the most disappointing personally, the nose was pretty nice. Why would someone endorse a product that tastes that bad?
I didn’t know many celebrities had tequila brands! Not really into celebrity products cologne, clothing, etc…. I don’t think I’d even try Mexican celebrity tequilas lol
9:23 I contemplate the issues of deception and betrayal. I refrain from endorsing any celebrity-branded tequila, even when it boasts quality, due to concerns about worker exploitation for the enrichment of millionaires. Additionally, such practices threaten the tequila industry by impeding genuine artisans' ability to craft their products. My apologies for this passionate expression of concern.
I like Teremana Anejo made into a traditional orange forward Margarita, 2 limes juices, 1 orange juiced, 2 ounce Anejo 1 ounce orange brandy. And 1 million cases sold is like a writer telling me they sold 1 million books, they just never tell you its the book stores and liquor stores not people buying them
Oh no I completely agree with you Small Batch take, they would have to be producing dozens of batches a week of a produce that take like you say years to mature to get to harvest, so there no small batch about them
Sammy Hagar started Cabo Wabo Tequila in the 90s, then sold it several years later. He then started a rum because he agreed not to do another tequila for a certain amount of time. Started Santo after that with Adam Levine, Adam got out & Guy joined.
The only one you didn’t try was Eva Longoria’s brand of Tequila, Casa Del Sol. I haven’t tried it yet but since it’s a lesser known celebrity brand I’m gonna say it’s ”Meh”.
@@Lui_Fern good to know. These days I’m willing to try any tequila that is addictive free, even if it’s a celebrity owned brand. So far my favorite is Fortaleza Reposado and I’m looking for the closest substitute for that brand until I can find another bottle.
Classic! I recently went to San Louis Obispo, Ca. to visit my sister. I stopped at the local BevMo to pick up a bottle. The "Lock case had 818, Casa Amigos, Patron, Don Julio, etc..

Great video. Did you speed up the video’s playback speed during some parts? It seems sped up/ fast at some points.
Insolito is my go to brand, glad to hear it got a good review
Nice vid. Always appreciate your realness. I was hoping to see Jordan’s and Diddy’s brands also.
Wondering if they are decent or sanitation.

I passed. Because like you, not made of money! Lol.
@@WatchMilesTV I'd be wary anyway. I doubt it's good.
So if you find a still strength tequila does it ensure there is no additives? Or can it still have additives in it
No that has nothing to do with additives. Because the additives are added at the end of the process. Still strength just means that it was never cut with water to bring it down to about 40% ABV
Curious how u feel toward Michael Jordan’s Cincoro??
Sammy Hagar has been in the tequila game for a while. Cabo Wabo is his too which has always been pretty solid.
Cabo Wabo WAS his. Sold in 2007. Cabo Wabo is now made at a different NOM, and is not that great. Santos is being made at the original NOM the original Cabo Wabo was when it belonged to Sammy Hagar.

Oh no I completely agree with you Small Batch take, they would have to be producing dozens of batches a week of a produce that take like you say years to mature to get to harvest, so there no small batch about them
Sammy Hagar started Cabo Wabo Tequila in the 90s, then sold it several years later. He then started a rum because he agreed not to do another tequila for a certain amount of time. Started Santo after that with Adam Levine, Adam got out & Guy joined.
Sammy Hagar owned Cabo Wabo back in the day so he’s been in the game for a while.
I thought you said the codigo 1530 line up was good
What about cincoro Michael Jordan is a celebrity
I actually love the reposado casamigos mixed with OJ and ginger ale. Love the vanilla flavor it really pops with the orange juice combo
No DeLeon?
The only one you didn’t try was Eva Longoria’s brand of Tequila, Casa Del Sol. I haven’t tried it yet but since it’s a lesser known celebrity brand I’m gonna say it’s ”Meh”.
I tried it at an event last year. It's bad
@@Lui_Fern good to know. These days I’m willing to try any tequila that is addictive free, even if it’s a celebrity owned brand. So far my favorite is Fortaleza Reposado and I’m looking for the closest substitute for that brand until I can find another bottle.
Just give me Olmeca Althos repo good enough
I recently picked up a bottle of the Olmeca Reposado. I think the Olmeca *Plata* is *much* better.
