Which is the BEST Blanco Tequila & Margarita
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Today is the last day of my 5 for 5 special leading to Cinco de Mayo. And I'm joined by my friend, bartender, and spirits expert Kevin Baird. We will taste tequilas ranging from $20-$80 and we will determine which of these tequilas is worth paying your hard-earned money for.
After tasting the tequila we will determine which Tequila Blanco makes the BEST Margarita for Cinco de Mayo.
Liquid Session is a chill sit-down booze talk. The idea is to take different spirit categories and taste entry-level all the way to top shelf and rare bottles. We uncork, smell taste, and talk about the spirits with occasional life talk. This is meant to be a chill conversation with some educational segments.

Thanks Tim! It’s an excellent bottle of Tequila. Very versatile as well. I hope it doesn’t disappoint you
Not every good sipper is the best mixer. Fortaleza is too good and too pricey for mixed drinks. I haven't had the other two. For low price, ADDITIVE FREE, and a good mixers I like Tres Agaves and Arrette blancos.
Such a good point from Kevin about the 'covering up' of spirits with wood, especially with Tequila/Mezcal!

Yeah! I love tasting the agave flavors out those spirits. So the less aging (or no aging) the better

@@LiquidMemoir Exactly! That's why we always use Anejo to introduce people to tequila, helps ease them into the vegetal notes
Great reviews - I agree that El Jimador is great for Margaritas and other mixed drinks, it's a great mixer for the price.

Thanks man! At least you know what you like haha. Happy cinco to you too!
It's hard to go wrong with Fortaleza. I'm a big fan of Pasote too. I might need to make a couple margaritas with them for a side by side comparison.

I actually haven’t had Pasote tequila! Will look for a bottle of that. Always interested in trying stuff I haven’t had. Margarita comparison brings out so many different things when you compare side by side. Glad we did that
Great video! I definetely go for Fortaleza!

Thanks brother! Hope you had a great birthday
Watching this while enjoying Fortaleza Blanco. Fortaleza and El Tesoro are my two favorites, and I like Reposado a bit more but go for Blanco at times. I tried El Jimador and I found it to be a really harsh tequila and could not drink it, even tried it as a Paloma and that did not cover up the harsh flavor...

El Jimador harsh? Comments like this is what makes it hard to decide whether to try this or not where some people say it’s easy in the palate and works great with margaritas and then I turn around and see opposing comments. As a newbie to the Margarita making scene it gets discouraging and confusing sometimes at not blowing a lot of money or knowing what to get.
Rinse your glasses!
Yessssssssss! Uno, not Cinco!!!!!!
