What's your favorite tequila brand?!

[@bungle3912]

Cheapest with highest alcohol volume.

[@resa33]

Milagro

[@davidskitchenandgrill]

Camarena Tequila. Budget friendly and personally think it tastes great👍🏼

[@DomenicsKitchen]

Fortaleza all the way!!

[@Glennarn87]

Don julio 1942

[@AKarriem]

Lol "I don't like lime." "Well, you picked the wrong spirit"

[@AkayRenegade]

real spill slime alv

[@taylorshaw8837]

Casamigos needs to be chilled or on ice to hide all the additive flavors 🤣 Good tequila does not need lime and can be enjoyed neat. People that buy this and other celebrity tequila, are drinking them because they think they are good. Try Fortaleza, Siete Leguas, G4, Lalo, El Tequileno, Tapatio, El Tesoro, etc. Real Tequila, made traditionally with no additives 😊

Nice video, if you buy additive free tequila the flavor is so much better! Blanco El Tesoro, G4, Forteleza, Tequila Ocho, have awesome flavor! True agave and not much burn. Then go to the reposado and Anejo for even more flavor. I drink all of these neat only.

[@etaoinn]

Please take this as a constructive critique, but there is so much editing that pops looks like a robot, it is very choppy. For me, it was quite distracting, and that is a shame as the video quality overall is very good.

I am totally new at drinking cocktails, i recently tasted a carajillo, mojito and a margarita (not at the same time though, different occasions) when I tasted the margarita it was a strawberry margarita and it was pure tequila I never felt the strawberry and it was extremely salty as well and I wondered if this was supposed to taste like, watching your video gives a nice and healthy introduction to find the flavors I like, cheers from Mexico!!!

[@hrbartender3079]

Gents blanco tequila can definitely be drank neat..you gotta get some proper tequila drinking glassware and also try to find the below bottles: Tapatio, arette, fortaleza, pasote, g4, wild common, siete leguas All these bottles will put your celebrity tequila selection to shame

[@kelo2895]

Right on.

[@TheSmartSneakerhead]

I was just about to say that. To me its the best way to get into tequilas because there are no qualities from the barrel. And additive free tequila is the way to go. Casamigos is definitely not the one to use.

I find tequila purchased in the US tends to be cut with corn liquor. Luckily I live near the MX border and I can’t get it 100% agave.

Regardless of what your pallet is…everyone should strive to drink additive free tequila! It tastes the best!

[@joshuaspurlock2612]

Exactly what I was saying, Tres Agaves, Tequila Ocho, Tequila Cabal for a Reposado, Siete Leguas for the anejo

[@Quicksilver1934]

This kind of misinformation is what turns non tequila drinkers off. A good additive free blanco tequila is a excellent sipper. El Tesoro, Aguila Real, & Carrera are my current choices.

[@alkirby3690]

Watched this vid while cracking open a bottle of JC Tradicional blanco 100% agave (yes, bottom shelf because that's what I can afford) and while I was concerned about getting a blanco (I usually go for the least expensive rep's) I am pleasantly surprised - the taste is what I expected, the character is smooth enough, and it's pleasant enough to drink the way I like to drink it - salt, shot, lime. I don't know if that's the "proper" way to do it, but that's what I like, and it gets me to where I wanna go. At the end of the day, if we're all enjoying our tequila purchases then it's all good, right? 🙂

[@hernandezj6028]

Nah bruh! You definitely sip Tequila Blanco NEAT. You don't drink CACAMIGOS neat in ANY form (Blanco, Repo, Añejo or XA). 1st of all.. wrong tequila. 2nd of all.. wrong glass. 3rd of all... you could let it breathe and Open up and you're good to go. Try a Tequila like El Tesoro or Siete Leguas for starters, completely different experience.

Make a video on the best Cristallino Tequilas. It’s Anejo that’s been filtered through carbon. I think my favorite is the Gran Centenario Cristallino green/clear faded bottle. Also the 1800 Cristallino is my #2

[@ChadWilson]

I have tasted a few tequila blancos that had a pleasant taste neat. Two that come to mind are Don Julio and Mijenta. I have a bottle of Espolone that works neat, but not as smooth as the previous two I noted.

How would you drink tequila?

[@kylehawk530]

I'm pretty sure this video was to educate people how to order tequila to their specific preference, not that everyone should drink tequila this way...🤔 Also where you come from has nothing to do with your knowledge on taste. I'm Italian but I drink more Tequila and Mezcal than Don Julio. "Clueless" is a harsh adjective to use when describing an incredibly successful channel and business. Keep up the amazing content gentlemen, cheers! 🍻

[@CharlieCarlos123]

@@JohnnyDrinks straight. Tequila 100% de agave. Btw there are 2 types of tequila. “Tequila” and “Tequila 100% de agave” Tequila is more for cocktails… not quite popular in Mexico Tequila 100% de agave is the real deal, which is made to drink straight. First you have to smell it in 5 steps. Taste it, drink it and take a deep breath to feel the essence. Then you’ll be enjoying the real flavor. I recommend you to try tequilas 100% de agave, try the steps and check the results. “Casa dragones”, any “reserva de la familia” and “Don Julio 1942”. I recommend those bottles. I apologize if my English isn’t that good. Cheers.

[@DzigaJerkov]

All the flavors from these tequilas you try are all from additives. Tequilas are aloud to have artificial flavors and sugar added. Also people who are tequila aficionados, not only drink and recommend neat blancos, but they prefer blanco over aged versions. Blancos are the purest expression of the agave (when properly made and not masked with additives). No aficionado will recommend lime either. That’s just to mask bad flavor from cheap tequila, popularized during a time of bad tequila in the US

[@PanchoKnivesForever]

Sooo… I highly recommend getting your hands on some high quality blanco tequila. You have some celebrity made brands there, which most are notoriously know for being additive-laiden, poorly made tequila spirits. And Patron is… a “well-crafted” agave spirit, it just has a very neutral profile with respect to other delicious agave spirits… it’s just okay, nothing complex or beautiful to experience really… You & your son deserve to be treated to a high-quality, well-crafted, traditionally made blanco - with no additives - that certainly can and should be drank neat. Barrel rested expressions are… for whiskey drinkers? Food pairing? An occasional spice for your favorite blanco? Blancos are the truth 😝

"Your not gonna drink blanco out of the bottle neat" 😂 you have the wrong tequila if you wanna drink it neat. Tequila is intended to be consumed neat, except maybe still strength or high proofs. Also try drinking it out of a flute glass, that will allow you to aerate your tequila before you drink. But more importantly drink it however you enjoy it best.
