I legit did not mean to post this at midnight... It was supposed to go out next week. Once i was able to make a Thumbnail for it and not post too much this week. ANYWAY haha here it is!
Also I filmed this video a month and a half ago. I found out yesterday that Primo will no longer be made at El Pandillo. So i am not sure about the quality going forward. So maybe disregard that one for now until we see what they do next?
Tasting notes not withstanding, the histories and back stories are very interesting and valuable. Your channel is great on many levels!
Happy you think so friend! 😁
Cascahuin one my favorites has priced me out. The base is $53 and the plata went from $65 to $95. G4 and El Tesoro are both $42.
I’m sorry… but did he just say that El Ateo “dates back to the 20th century???” Like… I date back to the 20th century…. How old am I? 😬🫣
So glad you covered Cascahuin!!!
Thank you for all your knowledge and willingness to educate us. I would like to ask your opinion on whether Tequila Epifania Azul Anejo is a good Tequila?
Good luck finding Corrido anywhere, it's amazing juice but harder to find than unicorns.
Hey Lui. Love your content. The standard Cascahuin sadly has gone up from the low $30s on the shelf to about $55 now in Northern California. It's a great product, but I don't know if it can compete with Fortaleza at the same pricepoint. Cascahuin has absolutely become a favorite distillery of mine, but I too am starting to look towards Lagrimas, Wild Common, Siembra Valles, and a few others that have access to 1123
Oh wow that is pricey! I can totally understand that, if the price was that around me too I'd probably switch to another brand for that amount.
Amazing lui ateo it is really good
Another great video, thanks. We have Primo at Binny's in Illinois.
Thanks friend! Happy you enjoyed this one.
I always enjoy listening, you are well informed and I usually pick up great info from you. Do u enjoy lost lore?
I actually did enjoy Lost Lore! I tried it yesterday
What’s up @Lui? Love the content, I gave up celeb/shitty tequila when I stumbled across your channel in 2023. Thanks man! Lol
I have a question? What’s your thoughts on Caballito Cerrero “tequila”? I put quotes for tequila because the brand isn’t recognized as CRT tequila.
Thanks in advance! ✌🏼
Thanks friend!
I have heard amazing things and it's not so much that it's not recognized by the CRT, the brand itself decided that they don't want to deal with the CRT and decided to forgoe the label all together. From what I've heard they are one of the brands with some incredible history
It was a pleasure meeting you Wednesday. You are a wealth of knowledge and learned a great deal. Immediately went out and picked up a bottle of Lagrimas 2022 El Chiqueno Repo and OMG was it fantastic. Cheers
Peter, the pleasure was all mine! Im so glad you enjoyed your evening here and it was really great chatting with you as well.
@lui_Fern can I use a resapado for mixing ? Is that good ? I know people say use a blano but if I want a resapado mixed with my squirt or or other drink it should wrk ? Also is patron over rated or is it decent ?
Thanks!
These are all common brands available everywhere. Try Cobalto, El Mexicano, Mala Vida, El Viejito, Pueblo Viejo, Suerte, Mijenta, San Matias, Confianza(best blanco you never heard of), Terralta, Hacienda Vieja and Don Pilar.
Confiaza I seen for cheap, is it better than arette blanco?
Bro chill on terralta, after everyone knows no more phenomenal deals left
@@yankchef4067, truth!😂
@@yankchef4067shh it's terrible tequila... I don't know why he listed it... Avoid Terralta🤢
Possibly to you and your market. Here where I am these,e at harder to find.
I picked up the Cascahuin Tahona and thought it was super bitter compared to my favorite blancos (Lalo, G4, Siete Leguas Decadas, Fortaleza) did I get a bad batch?
Ha! Just happened picked up 2 bottles of cascahun today as I'm watching this
I'm going to be going to Mexico, specifically Puerto Morelos, just south of Cancun, in May. I know this may be difficult to answer but is there anything I should be looking for while there? Meaning maybe things that aren't available here? I'd like to bring back a couple few different bottles if my budget, and suitcase, allows. I'm in Michigan so what I can get is different from what you can get there in Mass.
I saw a bottle called cenote today selling for 60 dollars while being an añejo tequila as well. The label said 100% agave, I’m curious if it’s worth a buy or not.
Will look for these brands in Tucson Arizona Desert 🏜️🙏😎
What are your thought on Cenote brand tequila? I have purchased some brands you recommend and like them. I bought a bottle of Cenote and do not like it.
What are your thoughts on flavoured spirits? E.g. Coconut rum, Lime flavoured tequila, Novo Fogo's new passion fruit flavoured cachaça, etc.
I am against it ñ. Except for Novo Fogos Passion fruit cachaça. They did a good job and it has a very natural flavor. I spoke with the master distiller about it. They really worked hard on it.
My wife loves Mexican food so for years I have been dropping by our favorite Mexican restaurants on the way home and ordering dinner to go at the bar. Then I will enjoy two double shots of tequila Blanco and a beer along with chips, Pico de Gallo, bean dip, and salsa. My bartenders know well Don Estevan does not want fruit or salt with his drink
Hate to break it to you but primo has recently announced that they are leaving 1579... On the other side of that, those 1579 primo repo picks are basically one of a kind now
I filmed this video several weeks ago. I just found out yesterday that they aren't going to be produced at El Pandillo anymore unfortunately.
I have an autographed one. Should I store it in a safe 😬
@@rc121crx Autographed by whom?
What Nom are they moving to ?
@@IMDUO 1639, it's Felipe's son kinda branching out. I'm a lot more optimistic than I was about pasote
My hidden gem is Pueblo Viejo Reposado. No additives and great taste.
Is the tasting glass a glencairn with an etched logo?
It is indeed
I tried to look on the tequila match maker for primo don't came out
It's there. Try "Primo 1861".😉
I found Cascahuin to be very average. No particular flavor that stood out. It was $45 in Atlanta so definitely not worth that.
The tahona and plata 48 step it up a good bit
We don’t talk about them because we want to find them in the wild 😭
Dude what are you doing with the rest of the tequila in each of those glasses? You have the heaviest hand this side of the Río Grande! Takes one sip then cut and a new glencairn appears. WHERE DOES IT GO????
So I like tequila. We'll So i thought.
I get margaritas when dining. Love them!
So I figured "I need to step up my game".
After watching this guy's videos, I got excited!.
Went out and bought 4 different tequilas that he rated highly.
Got my family together, and we had a blind taste test.
Well here were our conclusions:
Straight tequila is disgusting, doesn't matter what kind it is.
The only palatable tequila is in fact, the crappie ones with all the additives and crap!
We concluded that anyone who who enjoys drinking tequila that is not part of a "cocktail" either has a problem with there tastebuds, or they enjoy what is actually hideous.
Straight tequila is traditionally precluded with salt, and followed up with citrus for a reason. Because it tastes NASTY by itself, just like most other spirits! That's a fact!
Nobody drinks vodka solo, for a reason. Why? Because it's NASTY by itself.
Most all spirits are this way. There are few exceptions.
Even dirty martinis "are cocktails", mixed w other things.
For the same reason that salt only tastes good with "other things", and not by itself, so it is with spirits, including tequila. Put a teaspoon of just salt in your mouth. Does that taste good? No, never!
So, upon this realization, I started a new experiment.
I like tequila in cocktails, it's disgusting otherwise.
Sipping tequila, really? If you do this, your tastebuds are dead!
I.have "subdued " tastebuds. I'm not a super-taster. I can eat a raw lemon, and not cringe.
But, any spirits not in cocktails are hideous. If you think they taste good ,we'll I think your nuts.
So the new experiment was to make cocktails with these different tequilas and see how it went.
Turns out what happens w straight, carries over in the cocktail.
In our taste test, for example an A rated Tequila Ocho, was horribly sharp w bad aftertaste. Same in our margs! Less subtle but not good!
The B rated tres aquave, which tastes like "salt water straight, did much better in a marg.
Margs do well w "salt" that balances the other ingredients so it was a better combo.
Bottom line, is sipping spirits is silly. It's like women wearing high heels for looks at the expense of comfort!
That's just silly.
Folks get away w sipping bourbon and scotch only because the glass is full of ice watering it down enough to make it palatable.
Stop kidding yourself folks.
In conclusion, don't do what I did.
Try different tequilas in the cocktails, and go with what tastes best to you.
If you have a marg and love it, ask them what tequila and the mix ratio and enjoy a goods treat and stop doing the high heels fooling yourself already!!
Peace.
Do these have additives?
No they do not
What's the Nom on primo
1579 - Destileria El Pandillo
@@violentneon2999, just so you are aware, it's in the process of moving. I don't know the new NOM.
@@mrpricklypear22 What? A brand is at one of the top 3-4 distilleries and they want to change distilleries. Pasote la segunda parte.
