You'd be a believer if you tried this. Never had a Mezcal before. I assume their are usually associated with something harsh and rough?

Very rough and harsh. Not that I am trying out many, after a few I gave up and not looking for another "experience". I'll see if it is available locally and maybe give it a try.

Close to picking that up while in TX, but I thought it was locally available in MA. Certainly is a good and well regarded Tequila.

At this time, Chinaco, Don Julio, Casa Noble, Don Eduardo and 4 Copas are my favorite brands. Right now, I'm mostly drinking the Blancos and/or Silvers.

As a gift to me, people have not gone wrong with the Don Julio, that is for sure. A guy used to travel overseas all the time and bring me back stuff, and the time he brought the D.J., I was floored...then I got FLOORED.

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.
