Thanks for this! Very similar to whiskey tasting… and you’re correct! Life’s too short for bad tequila, or whiskey, or rum for that matter!

[@TheTequilaHombre]

[@sebastiangarciarce4011]

Wow, this content is amazing! I have a personal insight to share about tequila and I would love to hear your thoughts. In the production process of tequila, there is a crucial step called "descabezado" which involves removing components with lower molecular weight, known as "cabezas". This process is essential in giving the tequila its unique profile. Unlike wine, tequila should not be left to breathe or open up, as this would release many of the 1800+ components and alter the intended flavor profile. To test this, you can pour the same tequila into two different cups and try one immediately, then leave the other to "open" before trying it. You'll notice a significant difference in taste that deviates from the master distiller and tequila maker's original vision.

[@TheTequilaHombre]

That's inaccurate. Cabezas is the removal of heads during distillation which happens on just about every distilled spirit. When I go to distilleries they always pour and instruct you to let it open up before tasting. I don't know who told you this but it's not what I have experienced. There is some tequila producers that don't cut heads as there is less Methanol in the heads with agave spirits and more in the tails.

❤This. My wife was embarrassed that I tried to enjoy the nose of a bad tequila. Patron Reposado. Admittedly the nose was amazing. Thanks for showing her I’m not crazy just trying to squeeze some joy out of $23 2oz disappointment were it not for the beautiful sunset and the cinnamon agave nose.

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Thanks for watching!.

[@ebaboxing]

came in from smoking a cigar and drinking corrido decided to watch some throwback videos that I hadn't seen. I forgot that you wore glasses lol.

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Yes.. that was before Lazer Surgery..

[@STATUSTIMEPIECE]

This was perfect, 🙏🏾

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Glad you enjoyed it.. Check out the newer version I did on tasting and expanding your palate.

Glencairn for mi whiskey.

[@TheTequilaHombre]

yep

[@douglasfoster6212]

I highly recommend you add a link to the glass in your description. Additionally, I think you should add a link to your favorite place to buy tequila online! :D

[@TheTequilaHombre]

The glass has changed since then.. Denverandliely.com and my favorite online store i www.fermentandstill.com

[@elrob1978]

Ok I’ll

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Sounds good! :)

[@maxh6454]

Awesome video!

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@redforrori]

I'm a Philistine--I hate Glencairn/tulip glasses--in my experience they're hard to clean and easy to break. I'm sure I miss things, but I like plain old rocks glasses for whiskey and tequila ;) (No, I don't drink Cuervo gold ;)

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Try the Jarrito glasses for tequila. Better than any rock glass out there..

[@redforrori]

@@TheTequilaHombre I will try to find one, thank you :)

[@Thetupperqueen]

I need a tequila glass!!

[@TheTequilaHombre]

Denverandliely.com is the glass I use now..

[@WorldBeater123]

It would have been great if you would have put the names of the glasses in the description section.

[@TheTequilaHombre]

I changed glasses now. You can get the ones I use now at www.denverandliely.com. Look for the agave glass. It's the best

Wait, does the Riedel glass really do the trick or is it just a marketing scheme?

[@TheTequilaHombre]

It was supposedly designed for tequila and some people swear by it. I actually like the Denver and Liely glass more.. It's a better glass for agave spirits.. www.denverandliely.com
