  • In this video, we're putting our taste buds to the test to see if we can blindly identify which tequilas are additive-free. As true tequila lovers, we know that some brands may add extra ingredients to their tequilas, affecting the taste and purity of this beloved spirit. So, we've gathered 8 different tequilas, some with additives and some without, to see if we can tell the difference purely based on flavor and aroma. Let the challenge begin!
    Join us in this thrilling tequila taste test challenge to find out whether I can truly identify which tequilas are additive-free, based solely on my palate. Remember to like this video if you enjoyed the challenge and subscribe to our channel for more exciting and informative content about the world of tequila.

    I have to say. Up until recently, when I saw one of your videos on additive free tequila, I hade zero idea about what was going on. Let me just say that I’ve since gone out and purchased a bottle of Lalo, La Gritonas, and a bottle of Fortaleza blanco ( luckily for $65 ). And oh my god. Mind blown. All this time I’ve been in the dark, thinking I loved Tequila. Not realizing that I was drinking garbage. Thank you for opening my eyes to truly great Tequilas. Keep up the awesome work!!!!

      I agree to a certain extent. The issue is that since this is my restaurant and bar and I film alone I rely on friends to come and help for filming (like Lucas did here) he doesn't know the layout of my bar and the organizations for this video.
      I guess what I could've done was put a pool of tequilas off to the side and he could pick from them rather than determining the rounds.

One question, with the Tequila craze happening and Fortaleza the Number 1 bottle everyone is looking for just like bourbon hunting Eagle Rare, Blatons, Buffalo Trace, etc., do you still feel Fortaleza Blanco will be worth the current pricing? I've seen a bottle once in for $99 (i'm in Northern New Jersey) when I've been out bourbon / tequila hunting... I don't see the price ever coming back down to msrp in this current market... So would you still think its worth it at the price i've seen it at? Thanks!!!!!

    This is a COMPLETE BS trick- as you know which bottles you have to choose from in advance.. pretty easy to distiguish. Better if you do a line up of 5 random bottles with a few non-additive in there.. and see if you can tell the difference. All from same type.. like blanco, rep, etc. Choosing between 2 that you KNOW about.. is too easy.
