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!

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.

I love Tres Generation Anejo! Keep it cold and drinks as smooth as any tequila I have ever had and I have had more than my fair share.

My wife really, really likes the Patron XO Coffee -- very nice flavor. If you like Kaluha, then you will love this, much better flavor, and more alcohol!

I prefer Don Julion Anejo, Herradura Anejo, or for special occaisions Don Julio 1942 Anejo. For extra special occaisons I like Patron Gran Burdeos.

Actually, I am not picky -- as long as it is 100% de Agave -- I will drink Blanco, Reposado, or Anejo. I have enjoyed Patron, Coralejo, and Cazadores -- all good Tequilas.

I also agree with a previous poster -- the best way is to use a brandy snifter. No salt. No lime. No ice.

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, aņejos are often too sweet and smooth to me. One of my favourites is Don Julio but Patron is also nice.

Ah Jalisco! Tequila capital of the world. I've made 9 trips to Puerto Vallarta and looking forward to number 10. You have to go to Andales in the romantic zone when you get there.
