Specs do have a good selection, although Hi Times in CA has an incredible selection and good prices.

The Penca is as refined as the best Tequila. The flavor is just way out there. Pine, tar, agave... Just hard to pinpoint, but it's for sure an agave drink. Really smooth stuff.

You'd be a believer if you tried this. Never had a Mezcal before. I assume their are usually associated with something harsh and rough?

Very rough and harsh. Not that I am trying out many, after a few I gave up and not looking for another "experience". I'll see if it is available locally and maybe give it a try.

Close to picking that up while in TX, but I thought it was locally available in MA. Certainly is a good and well regarded Tequila.

At this time, Chinaco, Don Julio, Casa Noble, Don Eduardo and 4 Copas are my favorite brands. Right now, I'm mostly drinking the Blancos and/or Silvers.

As a gift to me, people have not gone wrong with the Don Julio, that is for sure. A guy used to travel overseas all the time and bring me back stuff, and the time he brought the D.J., I was floored...then I got FLOORED.

I know EVERYTHING is getting like this, but when I was in the store looking for Tequila this Saturday, I was saddened. I had 20 bucks, and granted, I was only looking for Margarita Tequila, but even then you can taste the bad stuff. JUST IMAGINE what my twenty bucks bought me. iiiyyuuch!

Brad - Hornitos Reposado is a fine tequila that runs $22-$23 around these parts. I can drink it straight. Damn fine for mixing. Can it match up against the higher end stuff? Of course not. But for the money, I think it is a great value.
