TBH, not great. Its not 100% agave and is a little overpriced for what it is. If you have no other option and just want to make a margarita then go for it, its not AWFUL, but there are many much better tequilas out there for less or equal $$$.

I recomend Eli Jimador or Cazadores as a better place to start that Cuervo.



As I said, it's seems to be rather tricky to get those here, eventhough wikipedia wants to tell me that Germany is the 3rd biggest Tequila market worldwide...

But I'm not much of a Tequila guy anyway, personally I prefer Whiskey... Some friends just had the fucked up idea to go all "cinco de mayo" this weekend. So I wanted to pick up something that's at least better than a bottle of Tequila with a freaking sombrero as cap.

Patron is actually what you could consider a alienware laptop fo tequilas. Good, but not worth the money,

In sweden, we had a long tradition of only having shitty mixtos available, (mixto is 51% agave and the rest chepest neutral alcohol you can find). But times are changing and you can get some pretty good stuff nowadays!

Imo, Reposados offer more taste and agave then the anejos, who seem to go too far towards other oakmatured brandy. Ofcourse, it depends on the situation as always. But generally speaking.

it is indeed quite expensive (at least to get in France), I buy it in the airport if possible! But there's a lot of marketing behind it so you get a really nice bottle and can sing along "patron on the rocks and I'm ready for some shots" which is priceless imo :p

If you're drinking simply to get wasted, there are plenty of of cheaper alternatives. Believe or not, people actually spend decent to outrageous prices on booze because enjoying the taste of a spirit is what counts. Don't get me wrong, I'm not judging if getting wasted is what one wants to do, I'm just simply saying that there are much better cost-effective and better tasting alternatives to drinking a bad spirit.

Almost as important as taste, quality spirits are much less likely to make you sick. Cheap tequila in particular is infamous for making people sick and causing major hangovers. Because the flavor is so unique and the smell is so strong, it's likely to stay with you for a long time. After a couple bad nights with cheap tequilla, you might not even want to be near it anymore.


Please don't say anything that stupid again...

Quality of alcohol and hangover has nothing to do with eachother, only alcohol percentage. Not sure you even know what Hangover is, so let me put it simple:
In reality there is nothing in the world called hangover, because actually you get dehydrated. on average, if you drink 1 liter of beer(which is ~5 %) 1,3 litres of liquid will come out - as everyone know, when you drink you will pee quite a lot.
So there you go, if you knew about what hangover really is, I hope you wouldn't have come up with such a stupid comment.
Hell, it's about time

Content other than alcohol percentage matters. It's why you end up with a minor hangover after 2 bottles of great wine compared a killing hangover by drinking the same amount from a carton. Additives, yeast, fermentation process, amount of synthetic components can all make a difference the next morning.

If any of you tequila lovers are ever over in Liverpool head to Bar Ca Va.

Too many different flavours. Jelly bean, baked beans etc

I used to believe this until I started drinking high quality spirits. I even tested it myself. I drank a whole bottle of 100% agave tequila and went to bed with only a few sips of water. Pretty much no hangover at all.
Alternatively, give me 3 or 4 draft beers and I feel like shit for about 18 hours.

I realize thats entirely subjective and is no reason for you to change your opinion; but I experience it for myself on a weekly basis, so I had to change mine.

I don't mind tequila as a finishing drink, after I've already had a few other drinks I can go the rest of the night on tequila shots but really not my first choice on a sober night.
