Don Eduardo Blanco is in my Top 5 Blanco Tequilas. Upon the first sip, it explodes with an array of rich agave flavors!

What a great thread!

Like many, I had more than my share of bad tequilas in my 20's but have now recovered. I have enjoyed Patron Silver a lot and thought Cabo Wabo Resposado was pretty good. They are the only two "better" tequilas I've had since my recovery. I made it a point to look for Casa Noble Crystal at my local liquor store today but they didn't have it. Surprisingly, not a very good selection actually, whereas otherwise they have a great selection of spirits/wines/beer. I hope to find it soon!

Really, I just wanted to bump this fine thread.

Your bump was a good idea, this thread needed to be awakened from the dead!

Casa Noble Crystal is worth the search, it's amazing and not too highly priced. In the mean time, don't hesitate to try either Don Julio or Don Eduardo, both very, very good/excellent!

I drink a lot of Tequila after meeting my inlaws, wife is from Mexico, and the best blanco out there is still Casa Noble, according to them and me.

Thanks for the recommendations. I seriously considered buying a bottle of Don Julio while there but decided not to. My bottle of Patron isn't at the critical stage yet.

And I see I spelled "reposado" wrong. Damn cell phone.

I had a few shots of a tequila a few weeks ago and can not remember the name. Hopefully one of you can.
The bottle looked like a "I dream of Genie" lamp. A small ball as a base with a tall very slender neck (about 6-8"). It was _____ Azul maybe??

Help? I want some more!!!

Penca Azul silver is my go to, I've drank their whole lineup though. While pricey it is some amazing stuff. I always wanted to try casa noble crystal but it is not available to me. Never bit the bullet and bought a don julio real yet....

Never been much of a Patron fan. I think it is waaaaay overpriced and definitely overrated. It is decent, but I would never pay over $30 for it. No one really even touches the stuff down here in little Mexico. My go to's are Herradura, Cazadores, Pepe Zevada and a very small distillery called Cavalino This stuff is simply amazing. It beats ever tequila I have ever had by a large, large margin. It is stupid cheap too at about $23/ 750ml. IF you can find it. pick it up.

Was picking up some beer/tequila at Total Wine the other day and I came across a pretty neat looking bottle of a tequila called Espolon. Now, I'm not one to spend money on labels so I was just curious if anyone had tried this and what they thought. I was gonna get it (only $18) but when I looked back in my basket, there wasn't a single beer I could live without lol.

Currently I am working on a bottle of Don Eduardo Silver, great stuff!

Any other tequila lovers out there?

Here you have a one great TEQUILA HERRADURA SUPREMA, smooth as silk.

It's no wonder they charge $35 A shot when you can find it.

http://www.herradura.com/product.aspx?id=1106

The company, ask that you break the bottle when you are do with it so that it is not fill with cheap stuff... It is aged for 49 months, WOW!!!
