Thursday October 16, 2008 – We took a day trip down to Tijuana for the Expo Tequila 2008.  We enjoyed the event and have some very helpful tips we learned:

From TequilaGringo.com:

We found this to be a silky tequila.  It didn't have any bite, and light heat.  A faint wisp of caramel along with honey notes.  More barrel tasting than agave tasting.  We thought it was a great sipping tequila but came up a little short compared to some of our other favorites because it didn't quite have the same level of complexity those others do.

From TequilaGringo:

So you're thinking about getting into tequila - you've come to the right place.  We thought for a bit about what would make a good tequila for a beginner and decided a couple of things:

1) Beginners probably have only had Cuervo Gold, maybe a Tres Generacions, Hornitos or 1800.

2) They probably don't want something with a lot of heat.  Something soft and easy to drink would be a good entree.

From Tequila Gringo:

We found the Dona Carlota repo to have a nice, light, and fragrant nose.  It smelled of spice to some degree, but we finally figured out that it was more like a potpurri!  It has a soft taste that was really floral.  VERY easy finish, and it maintained the taste throughout the finish.  This is a great starter tequila, and would be interesting in any tasting flight of anejos because it's so unique.

From Tequila Gringo:

Picked up agave on the nose.  The first taste brought smoke, and then a surprising after taste of citrus.  We felt it didn't have much barrel for an anejo (depending on your preferences, that can be a good or a bad thing), but if you read their write up - perhaps the flavors you pick up on other tequila's aren't the barrel either!  We liked this tequila, and think it's one to try as you look to figure out which is your favorite.

From Tequila Gringo:

Light Spice and agave flavors with a medium-high heat are what you get on the taste.  The finish has a heavy alchohol to it, which means a lot of heat.  All in all, not bad, but not on the best list either.

Here's a unique blanco.  We've had mescals that tasted like this, but not blancos.  This one had a unique richness to it, and a very smokey taste with hints of pepper.  Usually you need more time in a barrel to pick up tastes like these.  If you like smokey tequilas, this is a blanco that'll surprise you and put a smile on your face.
