[@truthseeker7867]

I’ll never be able to thank you enough for turning me on to El Tesoro. You are the best!

[@Lui_Fern]

Happy to help friend 😁

[@kwesty1]

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.

[@g.anthonycapaldi721]

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. 🙂

[@Lui_Fern]

I completely agree friend! And it took a bit but I did recover hahaha. Happy you enjoyed this one 😁🙏

[@TheToloachito]

Lui what's your opinion of PI Tequila

[@ladnargnoll1400]

Ive been avoiding Santo but after this and your interview with Guy I'm going to grab a bottle. Great episode!

[@jaykapur9588]

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.

[@dsixtosan]

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.

[@delgadogarces]

Thanks for going over these brands. Sadly, some of the mega sellers of alcohol stock these over smaller brands.

[@Lui_Fern]

Yeah unfortunately quite a lot of them actually. It's sad.

[@Superaficokings87]

So, Insolito and Santo Fino were the best of them i see. Thanks man! Nice job as always.

[@Lui_Fern]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@dbrooks7639]

great video Lui..... Your sacrifice is appreciated !😂😂

[@Lui_Fern]

Thanks 😅 I'm a man of the people 😁

[@MaZarems]

Awesome video! Really enjoy the fact that you don’t hold back. I did have a bit of a hard time hearing you over the music but big fan otherwise!

[@Lui_Fern]

Sorry about the music! That's my bad. 😅 I'm still ironing out the kinks.

[@MaZarems]

@@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!

[@scottgross5236]

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

[@gonegolfn07]

I freaking love these videos. Can't believe you don't have more subscribers.

[@Lui_Fern]

Thanks friend 😁🙏 happy you are enjoying them

[@CosmicFishbowl]

Sammy Hagar has been in the tequila game for a while. Cabo Wabo is his too which has always been pretty solid.

[@icxcnika9990]

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.

[@gflight295]

Your review was funny! Love it! Thanks for sharing!

[@Lui_Fern]

Thanks for watching! Happy you enjoyed the video

[@DoobieKeebler28]

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.

[@mmwosu]

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

[@keithbowman731]

Mezquila blanco respasado & anjeho

[@Eliminator27]

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

[@lukepliska1879]

Great video. Did you speed up the video’s playback speed during some parts? It seems sped up/ fast at some points.

[@jacksanbornjr7743]

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.

[@Lui_Fern]

You would hope so! But yeah they are decent

[@Cflynn2001]

Texans drink 2 liquors primarily. Whiskey and tequila.

[@eb98100]

Great stuff Lui! I’d love to see a deeper dive on Blanco! Cheers!

[@xiucoatl82]

Ready for part 2. Maybe add Eva Longoria's brand, as well as Adam Levine. I believe its Calirosa. Oh, also Jaja.

[@Lui_Fern]

I will have to do a pt 2 at some point for sure!

[@mrfinesse]

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).

[@Lui_Fern]

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 😂😂

[@Jackson-guitarist]

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.

[@karlhaug5001]

Thanks for the advice on your videos headed to Mexico in November

[@MusicNerdMIDI]

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.

[@billnicesun3613]

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!

[@Lui_Fern]

Awesome! Thank you friend! Happy you enjoyed this one 😁

[@christopherporter7623]

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.

[@Teroy34]

Can we see Kirkland tequila. The Costco brand . 😮

[@WatchMilesTV]

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.

[@Lui_Fern]

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.

[@WatchMilesTV]

@@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.

[@Lui_Fern]

@@WatchMilesTV I'd be wary anyway. I doubt it's good.

[@jg4767]

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.

[@jingledell1]

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.

[@rmcm2078]

Casa Noble should have been readily available and is owned by Carlos Santana. Gets decent reviews on tequila matchmaker. Was hoping to see it here!

[@joelaltman930]

Thank you for not destroying my preference for the Insolito!!!

[@dechanpaman]

Don’t forget, Sammy’s Cabo Wabo came way before casamigos. You should try the original Cabo Uno.

[@razzledingle]

Great video! Definitely consider a part deux with Ambhar, Casa Azul,, Casa Noble, DeLeon, Prospero, Cincoro. There are more celebrities in need of humbling.

[@Lui_Fern]

I can certainly consider doing that! It's a good idea haha gonna have to start a savings account just for that 😂😂

[@craigalexander4532]

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.

[@fairlylocal607]

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.

[@spoulin99]

Curious how u feel toward Michael Jordan’s Cincoro??

[@JermaineAuNatural]

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🤭

[@J_Miller]

Insolito is my go to brand, glad to hear it got a good review

[@Kevlar830]

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)

[@Godfatherjrt]

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]

Thank you so much for the kind words and comments! I really appreciate it 😁😁

[@Godfatherjrt]

@@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]

@@Godfatherjrt I loved Primo. I thought it was less citrus and floral than G4 but very robust and delicious. It's so good

[@Godfatherjrt]

@@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! 👌

[@tacticalmacabee18]

Intrested in trying the santo reposado but thats the only one lol

[@triedlikesilver]

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.

[@irenec2252]

Thank u! You’re entertaining and informative!!

[@Lui_Fern]

Thanks my friend 😁 happy you think so!

[@laiky71]

have you ever tried the original Cabo Wabo?

[@triedlikesilver]

I had a taste of Patron Cristalino yesterday. I was surprised how much i enjoyed it. Very peppery, not very sweet. I would drink it again.

[@Dbaldwin00003]

I only watch the celebrity videos to know what to stere clear from when bottle shopping 😂

[@bobbysbackyard1781]

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.

[@tabbennett4254]

Santo Fina repo is actually VERY GOOD!

[@Lui_Fern]

Indeed it is!

[@sethconklin8012]

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

[@jadenmitchell7169]

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

[@sipsavorandcelebrate]

100 % Agree !!!

[@roycortez2558]

Lui keeping it real baby. Also what brand is your watch?

[@Lui_Fern]

It's a brand called "Unique" I got it at this dope little boutique men's store in Florence a few days before my wedding.

[@kennethadrianiii9480]

So if you find a still strength tequila does it ensure there is no additives? Or can it still have additives in it

[@Lui_Fern]

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

[@JWalton314]

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.

[@eliaschevette]

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.

[@schmup53]

Much appreciated, Lui.

[@Lui_Fern]

i thought sammy hagar with cabo wabo was one of the first celebrity to promote tequila

[@reijagross317]

can you rate Pantalones tequila from McConaughey

Codigo and Santo Fina....and Number Juan from Ron White is good!!

For me the best celebrity tequila is Santo Fina from Sammy Hagar and Guy Fieri

[@flundyyy]

Thoughts on montelobos?

[@bradleyburton4762]

My mom loves Casa Amigos. I bought her a bottle of my favorite, Fortaleza. She didn’t like it. We do not talk as much as we use to.

[@mannyvilla-goz1979]

How do we know Tequila Match Maker is not being paid off by tequila makers to say their product is additive free?

[@bobmoore9470]

Doesn’t Kate Del Castillo own Honor. Is that any good?

[@pross6525]

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.

[@Lui_Fern]

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

[@pross6525]

@@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

Lui, have you tried the Breaking Bad -Aaron Paul Bryan Cranston tequila, Dos Hombres?? Want to hear you review it!!

[@Lui_Fern]

I have and the review is on my channel already ! You can watch it now

[@carlitos133]

How about Casa Azul? Eiza Gonzalez

[@keithbowman731]

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.

[@jurassicdub]

What do you think about Ron White’s tequila?

[@gijoey5912]

Is that Number Juan? I heard it's pretty decent.

[@nicosengify]

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

[@Lui_Fern]

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

[@nicosengify]

@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 KZbin but if you're interested in collaborating on X, let me know.

[@dsharton]

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

[@Lui_Fern]

I do not. I refuse to serve that to guests. It's the perks of being a stubborn restaurant owner who can decide what he wants to serve

[@DanielMartinez-uv6hy]

Heart and Rock are friends. Are they using the same tequila factoyou?

Are we basically saying if tequila match maker say it’s additive free it’s good?

[@Lui_Fern]

Not necessarily, but it is a minimum threshold the way I look at it.

[@downtime212]

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.

[@jonlouis2582]

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?

Sammy Hagar owned Cabo Wabo back in the day so he’s been in the game for a while.

I work at a liquior store and I just laugh at how many folks buy casamigos 750/1 liter bottles !!! Patron sells well but everyone goes for casamigos or Don Julio. I swear i been working there for almost 3 months and have yet to see someone get The Jenners 818 bottle as I am a cashier. People who REALIZE they don't have enough money settle on the taramana once I tell them the don julio/casamigos price

What about Cazadores?

[@jimmygriner3867]

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

[@Lui_Fern]

It's not so much about the sales. It's the fact that they could produce that many in a year. That's the part that is a flag for me.

[@jimmygriner3867]

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
