Wow, beat me by a few minutes -- I was going to say the same -- Patron is getting to be ridiculously priced -- Casa Noble is usually $15-20 less and a better tequila.

Tenoch is a nice, reasonably priced tequila and comes in a cool stoneware bottle.

I also have some Cuervo Family Reserve that is excellent.

I like silvers, but prefer anejos, especially el tesoro and patron.

The wife pretty much won't drink anything but Patron Silver, so I rarely drink anything but that lately....not that I'm complaining!

I prefer the silvers, I feel the Agave can get lost in the oak...

I agree about the agave, but the better anejos to me just have that nice balance between agave and the oaky vanilla flavors that come from the aging. It's just like cigars, plenty of room for different tastes.

Currently enjoying the silver Tequilas, I enjoy thier pure Agave flavor.

Currently in my bar, if thats what you want to call it.

Milagro Silver
Milagro Repasado
Cabbo Silver
1921 Silver

finished a bottle of Patron silver recently, it didnt last long,

I like to start out with Tequlia and OJ, and with each drink adding less OJ, until I'm sipping it straight. Thats a good night!

I can't do tequila.. i never remember anything the next morning

Regular tequila fave is Don Julio Anejo.

If you want to try something different for sipping with a cigar, the Patron XO Cafe is pretty interesting. I have turned several BOTLs onto it and most of them seem to like it with a cigar as well. Sweet taste, not a typical tequila flavor.

Ah, very nice thread! I love tequila and really appreciate getting some hints on what to look for when I go to Puerto Vallarta in Mexico in April next year.

I usually prefer reposados, añejos are often too sweet and smooth to me. One of my favourites is Don Julio but Patron is also nice.

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.
