    I can drink a whole bottle of Espolon and not have a hang over... that's why I drink and swear by it! lol

      It won’t give you a hangover but it’s far from the best tasting

      I like it cause I can drink a bottle & literally go to work the next day with no bad feel ... so it's great in my book 🎉

    Using phrases like “it sucks” “it’s nasty” isn’t telling us much . Maybe educate yourself more on the the different notes and flavors . This review was very remedial .

      It’s a very generic tasting tequila. Feel free to watch an episode where we taste something more complex; but as always drink what you like!

      I have no idea what they are tasting and smelling. It smells nothing like gym socks.. it smells and tastes like an average Blanco tequila. At $30 it’s a decent mixer for a margarita. It’s not as bad as they are saying at all. At $28.95 I 100% would buy for a party for margaritas

    So this is kinda the first tequila I’ve purchased and done a shot of and then proceeded to kill the bottle mixing it it didn’t make me tired or give me a hangover at all I actually stayed up and had enough energy till the alcohol wore off
    Obviously I was a lil over sensitive to the taste at first because literally all I drink is Tito’s but I miss the espolon already since then I’ve tried el jimador and mezcal apaluz

    • @spiritscollective
      @spiritscollective  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah I definitely think this is okay to shoot, but there’s a lot of really good tequilas out there if you wanna sip something neat.

    I don’t like tequila, but liked this. The taste was absent, just smooth. More like a clean, expensive, smooth vodka rather than a tequila. Maybe that’s why yall didn’t like it? It’s for sure lacking the agave and tequila flavor.

  • @GamerToday
    @GamerToday 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The repo isn't half bad only had it 3x in last few years as the price is wrong for it.
    But this time having it very carmel heavy on flavor smells and tasted better than I remember it to.
    Have never had their blanco.

  • @ThomasMetal75
    @ThomasMetal75 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I was trying to review this recently (audio got jacked up), and honestly, I didn't find anything that bad about the tequila. It's just a mild tasting tequila with zero rough edges and absolutely no alcohol notes. It reminds me of a vodka with actual flavor notes of light citrus and cooked pineapple notes, but that's it. To say it smells bad is an insult to the little that's there. It is a plain jane tequila, yes, but we aren't trying to pretend it's a rolls royce when it's more like a Honda Civic, lol. Cheers!

    Here is the problem I ran into w Espolon, inconsistency. 3 bottles in a row, nice smooth flavor. The 4th time buying, it was horrible, and tasted like it had been cut with cheap nasty vodka. I literally dumped the bottle out and was done.

    • @spiritscollective
      @spiritscollective  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You guys dont know much about tasting tequila. Experienced bartenders will tell you about how good it is. There are still tequilas out there that are really good like Espolon and dont have to be expensive. The people that know, they know.

    • @spiritscollective
      @spiritscollective  ปีที่แล้ว

      Nah we are learning. The whole point of the channel is to get better and better at sipping whiskey and tequila. Still, there’s been a lot of tequilas we really liked. This one just wasn’t that great. We will come back to it in the future.
