You keep talking about your tequila.
Can you get me a glass?
He said, sure.
So he brought me over.
It was a Blanco of some sort and handed it to me and I tried it.
And my first thought was, this is not tequila.
And then as I thought about it, I went, oh, this is what that tequila is trying to do.
So, yeah, if you've only had bottom shelf tequila.
you do not know whether or not you actually like tequila or not yet, because that it is the highest, uh, they're, they, they, they are the most dissimilar things between a hundred percent blue agave and the mixed tequilas.
Um, but so back to this one, this one is, uh, uh, blue Blanco agave spirit.
Blanco generally just means that it's unaged.
Um, and,
And then, which is the more traditional, the actual aging tequila in used bourbon barrels and such didn't come around until the Scotch craze of the 50s and 60s.
And they started doing that to compete with the Scotch drinker market and produces great stuff.
Again, I love my AΓ±ejo tequilas as well.
And actually, it's worth a look because actually most...
I don't even know why, but it seems like when I go to the liquor store, I will see the Blanco and right beside it will be the, uh, the reposado, which is just Spanish for, for rested.
And there'll be like the same price or like a couple of dollars difference.
So I will say overall the reposado, uh,
You need to be blind because one is usually like a pale yellow and the other one is crystal clear.
