I used to be a cheap drunk, but the more I practiced, the better I got at drinking

Only 100% agave is tequila, and that must be produced only in a certain region of Mexico to carry the Tequila name. Green agave is used for making tequila, blue agave is used when making mescal; though neither use the actual leaves (branches) of the plant. White (or clear) tequila is not aged. Amber or golden tequila is aged in oak barrels anywhere from 6 months to 3 years....after 3 years there is no noticeable change in quality, so if you're buying 10 year old aged tequila, you're just wasting your money. All tequila is distilled twice, mescal is only distilled once.
I know way too much about tequila now.

Gurl, tequila doesn't get good until at least a hundred a bottle.

Hope you're not buying anything aged more than 3 years. Actually some of the tequila I tried on my tour was around $85 for a 26oz bottle. It was aged 3 years, but I preferred the 6 month aged stuff which was $51 a bottle.

I don't drink tequila.
But, on occasion, when I do. Tequila Real, and Don Julio 1942 are my choices, Herradura is also solidly decent, but not top shelf in a bar I'd stock.

If you ever see Cava Antigua tequila, try it, I'd be interested to hear what you think.

If you can't appreciate (if not enjoy) a good Scotch... The only reason why I haven't deleted you is because you haven't slighted Bourbon yet.
