Recently as my time here in Afghanistan has been growing shorter and shorter, been craving many things, mostly food........ but one of those cravings is for a good tequila.

Personally my three favorite brands are

1) Tres Generaciones

2) Don Julio

3) Don Eduardo

The upside to this list is no need for chaser, of salt and lemon. Downside of this list for me would be finding the bottom two on the list where I'm stationed at, believe the Class 6 carries the first one.

Whats say you on tequila?

Have you tried Don Julio 1942?

I've had quite a few tequilas and this is my favorite.It's tasty, smooth, just all around great stuff. Only problem is that it's pricey.

My favorites, Sauza Hornitos, and Jose Cuervo Black. Hornitos is about as smooth as tequila gets and Cuervo Black is aged in charred oak barrels and has a hint of whiskey to it.

One of the great tastes of summer served at Casa Brewha is tequila y cervesa.

The tequila; Blanco/Plata served cold. The bottle stays in a large ice bucket along with the glasses.

Cobo Wabo

Partida

Natly

The beer; Tecate, Modelo, Corona (lot of debate between the customers here)

Come summer we will loiter by the pool, play some music, and smell the grill slowly burning some meats and vegges. Everyone keeps a beer in hand or a glass of fresh lemonade. Each guest selects their own glass type for the cactus juice; shot, shooter, or whiskey glass. The glasses go in the ice to chill until the next round is needed.

I don't know why, but Perdomo's seem to go best with tequila. Plainly more research is needed on this . . . .

This is one of the anejos that drinks like a fine brandy. While I perfer the blancos, I won't pass this one up.

Don't have a particular tequila preference other than a hatred for Patron. Over-hyped crap really irritates me. I was dating a girl from Chihuahua last year though and she introduced me to their local brew, sotol. Very good stuff, but hard to find in the states. Any time she, or a friend of hers would travel between Chihuahua and Chicago a few more bottles would magically appear in our cupboard.

The first order of buisness is Blanco, Reposado, or Anejo.

Some brands have good Anejo and poor blanco, and vis versa.

IMO the blancos have more interesting favors in them. The aged ones task more like a whiskey or bandy and loose the clean agave taste.

Sotol is good stuff, and like Mezcal, technically not a tequila. But all three are Mexican cactus juice . . . .

The primary difference is that they are not made in the Tequila province of Mexico. Like Champagne, Tequila is a reference to a place and not a formula.
