I spent 3 weeks in and around Mexico City during the summer and decided that I really should get to know something about the national spirit of Mexico. With the help of my Brother, Sister-in-Law and her wonderful family I learned a little about Mexican distilled spirit.
In all I sampled eleven different Tequilas/Mezcals during my stay, and brought a further five home to enjoy at my leisure.
I've created a separate Tequila Discovery page for my notes which can be found here, but in summary;
- Tequila Discovery #1 Mezcal Sanzekan Joven (48% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #2 Tequila Don Julio Blanco (38% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #3 Tequila Hornitos Reposado 100% Agave (38% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #4 Tequila Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado (38% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #5 Tequila 1800 Añejo (38% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #6 Tequila Herradura Reposado (40% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #7 Tequila Don Julio Añejo (38% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #8 Tequila Don Julio 70 Cristalino (39% abv)
- Tequila Discovery #9 Tequila Tres Generaciones Añejo (38% abv)
