If your someone who loves the taste of artificial caramel, vanilla, and agave syrup these are for you. Calling both these brands tequila is a stretch. They are not representations of what authentic well made tequila should taste like. They are examples of superb marketing which Americans seem to fall for all the time. These brands are available everywhere and cost you less - Suerte, Cimmaron, Tequila Ocho, ArteNOM, 123, Volcan, Siembra Valles, Volans, G4, San Matias (if you like XA), Siete Leguas etc. Lifes to short to drink bad tequila as said by the Tequila Hombre channel.
Americans aren’t falling for anything, we just aren’t pretending to be tequila purest like some, and our tastebuds here in the U.S are accustomed to sugary beverages and foods so these brands appeal to folks whom are average consumers and typically young people who don’t enjoy the “pure” taste of alcohol.
I got a bottle of the adictivo anejo and found it to be over sweet like sugar water killing all the other tequila taste. I can only hope it makes a decent ranch water or margarita as its not a sipper
Gotta pronounce that ñ. On-yay-ho, not ah-nay-ho. Try some Tears of Llorona, Rey Sol or Tapatío Excellencia if you want a true, additive-free XA masterpiece
Thanks for the review. It would be cool to see an additive free XA lineup next
Maybe.
Not a lot of those available near me.
Thoughts on Tears of Llorona?
@8:20 you mentioned your favorite tequila, but didn't recall the name it it. Can you link the video or do a video on it?
Why pay that much when you can get sugar high from a great rum for cheaper. In my opinion tequila should not have additives.

I am definitely a fan of additives. Adictivo is my favorite by far
The beginning of a great night and a bad two days after lol
For real... I almost died

Definitely additive heavy.. did you watch the video?.. I talked about all of this.
Just got a bottle of Maestro Dobel 50 extra anejo. Havent opened it yet. Thoughts on this one?
Try some additive free tequila. Most of these have flavorings and additives in them and are looked down upon among true tequila connoisseurs.
Did you watch the video? I talked about them having additives... 🙄
I am more of an additive free spirit guy. Thanks

Looking forward to the Clase being chopped up for the Patrons...right? 🤣
