I’m so happy to see El Tequileno and Tapatio do so well! Can’t wait for more Tequila episodes! 😋🥳👍
No way?! You guys did another blind tasting with more wonderful blancos!! Happy to have found you again on youtube.
Great job guys! Cazacanes reminds me how Fortaleza showed on your other blinds.
Slight differences in production can sway anyone, but alone, they stand because you know exactly what went into the juice. I personally love all Tapatio tequilas. Besides the value, they're just well mode. Can't wait to see an anejo and extra anejo blind.
Glad to see part 2 of the blancos. You guys turned me onto tequila and I have built up a small collection that will continue to grow. I noticed that the tequilas from Carlos Camarena do very well in your blind tastings with Tapatio having a good showing here. Looking forward to future tequila videos from you guys. Here’s to staying curious. Salud.
This was really interesting. I love hearing each of your descriptions and assessments. It guides me to know how to taste better and to be better in touch with my likes and dislikes with different pours. I enjoy your personalities and methods so much. I hope you’ll do more of these. Thank you!
Shocked! I love doing blinds.. You learn so much without brand bias.
Cazcanes is a favorite of mine... I just taste ripe slow cooked agave and its superb. Some people say they get parm/cheese, but rubber... That's crazy to me. I guess, that's why we are all different!
Not shocked about El Tequi, it's a great blanco. 7L is such a vegetal juice I'm surprised that word was not involved.
Great video guys, I love these! Looking forward to more and then the championship showdown!
As soon as they noted the cheese funk, I knew green was Don Fulano
I love those blind tastings ❤. The only one I have is El Tequileño, not opened yet … can’t wait!
Had a gut feeling the results would be something like this. Great stuff, looking forward to the repo and anejo blinds!
Love the round 2! This was awesome!
I love these do more! And I’m so happy that Cascada’s came in last because when I bought it after everyone talking about how good it was, I thought it sucked and this whole time I was thinking somethings wrong with my pallet lol these are my fav videos you guys do! 🤙
Cazcanes does have several different batches, and at different ABV's. Mayhaps yours is different.
Or, mine is different.
Their No.7 is okay. Their No.9 is truly out of this world for me and is one of the best blancos I’ve ever had. Ranked closely to Volans Still Strength & 7 Leguas - Siete Decadas.
Of course, all of this is just my opinion.
Loved your 1st part, so I'm so happy to see a part 2!!! These blanco taste challenges are awesome for someone like me looking for more awesome blancos! You guys are the reason I ended up trying Tequila Ocho after watching the 1st part a few months back and BOY was I definitely happy with that decision. Such a smooth tequila👌
Just want to let you guys know you're one of only three channels I watch regularly these days now that Whiskey Vault has outgrown itself. Scotch Test Dummies and Ralfy being the other two. Keep up the great content fellas.
Thank you for your "Part 2." ...Time to taste "El Tequileño" & "Tapatio" :) And, keep making these great, fun-to-watch videos!
PS One that matches the top three Blancos from each round, in a six-brand, all-star Blanco shoot-out, would also be just great!
I hope you keep going with this series. I'm a complete Tequila beginner and these videos helped me identify a couple bottles to pick up and try out. Now that I'm buying bottles I see how hard to find some of the bottles are - Fortaleza doesn't seem to exist in my city and the only G4 bottle that exists is Blanco (and those are hard to find). I was lucky enough to randomly decide that Tequila Ocho would be the first brand I bought (since drinking Patron and Cuevo in college)... I was pretty sure I would never like sipping a tequila but the Blanco and Reposado changed my mind.
That put me on the hunt to find the Anejo and Extra Anejo of Tequila Ocho... Can't find either in my area. I did find a store with El Tesoro Extra Anejo in a box for $100 but I didn't actually have my wallet on me at the time. I'll probably go back and pick it up tonight. My goal is to keep the Tequila collection much smaller the massive about of whiskey I own.
Awesome vid as always.
Also just noticed Dillon is holding an Eagle Rare bottle on his intro 💀💀💀
I did my own blind with what I had
1. Tapatio
2. G4
3. El Tesoro
4. Tequila Ocho
5. Siete Leguas
Great reviews and very insightful.
Looking forward to the reposado round. El Tequileno is greatly underrated In my opinion. Would love to see a face off between round 1 and round 2 winners too.
I would too.
Another great video, the only Blanco that I have tried is the Tapatio and I love it.
Thanks for sharing guys. Keep up the great work can't wait for the reposado episode.
I knew El Tequileno would win. Their reposado is amazing and should win as well. You get grapefruit and minerality that heightens the palate making it unique and delicious. Great episode.
A blind with high proof blancos! Hard to organize & little options, but that would be interesting
Love the videos. Love blancos. Great job. I think I agree with the guy on the right here, I have always had a special attraction to Tapatio and El Tesoro. 👍👍
Is the rubber smell on Cazcanes form the synthetic cork
Great video. You guys should be on the lookout for "Primo 1861" , it's fantastic, tahona crushed too.
It'd also be cool to see Suerte Blanco and Altos in the mix too as a cheaper option
I'm a bourbon guy but I enjoy each and every video....Thanks!
New subscriber/follower. Love the tequila review fellas!
Most experienced tequila drinkers/tasters prefer the malolactic fermentation process that give funk to blancos sometimes.
Im surprised you guys seemed to think el tequileno wouldnt do well, all their stuff is really really good, the anejo is amazing. It really does seem you guys do your bottle guesses more on your pre-conceived notion of where the brand should place, as opposed to your own tasting notes. I noticed it in either the other blanco, or the repasado vid, where you all talked about earthy one was (Forteleza) but, didnt put it there because it was lower in ranking, opting to guess it 1/2. It would be good to do a pre-tasting ranking guess on where you think theyll place... and then focus more on the tasting notes for the actual bottle guess
Part 3! Part 3! Part ³!
I haven’t seen results yet but the way you describe I am thinking Blue is Tapatio , Cazcanes is the rubbery one like a lot of Mezcals or I would say Band-Aids, the cheesy one automatically is Don Fulano. Siete Leguas is very vegetal and didn’t hear anyone say that so could be orange or yellow. El Tequileño is very distinct to me and could pinpoint it out in any blind so it’s either orange or yellow. Only going by your descriptions.
I own all of those brands and they are all good tequilas. Had the pleasure of visiting the “El tequileño” distillery a couple of months ago.
The reposado rare is absolutely phenomenal.
Quick and dirty, Tequila Ocho Plata vs El Tequileno?
Just popped the cork on the new Ocho Puntas. Hope you guys get your hands on one.
nice! We are hoping to find it! Really hoping we do!
Nice content!!!
I think a better Blind Taste Challenge would be for You to not even know what Tequilas You're even tasting.
Let your subscribers choose 5 Tequilas to taste and have them email their list to someone you know who will choose the Tequilas, label and pour the glasses for you and NOT tell you which Brands your tasting. Another twist you can add is for the "Nose" round use your "Color Labels" THEN have your designated pourer re-label the glasses with "Numbers" for the "Palate" round.
You would go through each round as you normally do with your critique and choose an overall favorite after the "Taste/Number" round.
I feel this way would remove any subconscious "skewing" of a favorite as you would not know which Brand to choose. You could supply a Blind Guess at the end to see if you know your Brands.
Anyway, I Great Info. Due to your 2 Blind Taste Challenges I have purchased Tequila Ocho and El Tequeliño and love them both.
Thank You!!!
Awesome can’t wait for more
Great timely video for me
Need to do a mezcal sometime.
For round three, I'd like to see you add Pasote in the blind. Think it stands up to any of the one you've done in tounds 1 and 2.
Looking forward to the next blind test on blanco & Añejo tequila tasting.
We need MIJENTA!!!!
yes sir
Always very enjoyable & surprising blind testing!
Ngl thank you fellas for recommending great tequilas frfr
Surprised by that don fulano and siete leguas taste profile. Don fulano for me is usually sweet cooked agave, soft, green. Siete is usually dry, white pepper spicy, minerality. Have to try doing 5 Blancos next to each other and see if I get the same thing. Thanks for the video guys!
High proof anjeo future video?
Wow u absolutely love these. Could you maybe do one that includes patron? A lot of people have access too it more than others. Curious to see how it hold up
#1 and #2 the cheapest priced ones great!
Love these blind tastings!! I’d love to see the Extra Anejo’s next.
Right…Dillan?
we've already done our first round of Extra Anejo - round 2 will be coming eventually!
ruclips.net/video/4l0Sz30u-0U/видео.html
Round 3?
The same NOM finished in 2nd place in each if the Best Blanco blind tests. It's 1139:
Part 1 - El Tesoro
Part 2 - El Tapatio
You should have included the regular cascahuin, for me it's better than Tequileño and Tapatío. Tapatío is a bit more bitter than I would like, and Tequileño for me, it has a fermented mosto smell and taste, which is very unique, both are great tequilas too.
Please do Volans and Mijenta next!
Frankly, that's what I would've picked. El Tequileno is a sleeper!
I get that cheesy funky aroma off certain Ocho blancos and Artenom 1146
Crazy how Cazcanes was the priciest juice on the table too
Agreed. Their No.9 (100 Proof) release is worth it, though.
You guys should consider throwing in some celebrity tequilas to see if you can spot the mass marketed trash.
Oy; please don't subject them to that swill.
Ok, my guess is Tapatio.. if it doesn’t win I’d be 😮
In Dillon we trust.. ranking Tapatio #1
Agua vida is about to blow up
I’m with Dillon when it comes to 7 Leguas… it’s good tequila, but not super exciting… I thought Tapatio would definitely be up there… haven’t tried the El Tequileño Platino. I had the blanco and for the price, not bad, ok for mixing margs and making batangas…
What about a still strength challenge?
I did a blind with tequila. Ocho add Trader Joe’s, and thought they were very close, but I’m no expert.
Please drop the three stooges act , hard to take you seriously
I had all of them except Cazcanes not spending 90/100 on a blanco which such great Tequilas in 40/60 range, Siete Leguas would.be my favorite and Fulano least
I had a batch 7, which I believe this is, and it was $63. The batch 9 and 10 are in the $100 range.
The No.9 is worth it. If you ever get a splurge moment, that’s one of the ones to consider getting. It’s insanely juicy. Such s crazy experience for me.
I bought Cazcanes Anejo about two weeks ago. Definitely not worth the money. It is very one note, with none of the complexity Fortaleza and Ocho exhibit. It is very high priced. Will not be buying it again.
I had a pour of Cascahuin Tahona this past weekend and it too smelled like booty sweat 😂
Blind tastings are fun
hoping to get some good tequila in Las Vegas ....im from Montreal and the picking is few to none😊
Do a blind with Trader Joe’s tequila and a lot of really good ones to see if it’s as good as I think it is
Kinda glad I didn't buy any Cazcanes because rubber sounds awful. Love me some Siete Leguas though
Close to a 100 I'd avoid it also
@@frankmurillo422 total wine in my area just stocked it for $76. That's already pushing my budget for a Blanco especially one I've never had. I know they apparently switched distilleries recently so maybe that's part of the problem right now.
@@jackbrady86 yeah there is to many great Tequila Blancos in the 35/60 range to be spending that much. I think Primo is the most expensive Blanco I buy which is 65
@@frankmurillo422 yeah that's about 70 bucks. That's probably my next premium Blanco that I'll buy. No reason to spend $75 on rubber when I can get Ocho for under $50
@@jackbrady86 Ocho is great stuff my local Sam's club(South Gate Ca) has them for 33.99. It's there only good Tequila they sell there. Once in a blue moon they get 7 Leguas
Yessssss
Makes sense as to why you have not answered my messages lolz
I’ve seen y’all do reviews of other tequila and bourbon brands, where their high proof counterpart was out-of-this-world delicious. Lending it to be almost incomparable to their lower proof counterpart. I must say, this is likely to be true with Cazcanes No.7 (80 Proof) blanco vs. Cazcanes No.9 (100 Proof) blanco. I’ve had others taste Cazcanes No.9 with me and consistently tell me how AMAZING it is, whereas with Cazcanes No.7, it’s always been… somewhat of a lackluster response… (could be some bias I cause, though, from having others taste the high proof first and then the lower proof second, myself included)
It’s so disappointing that may favorite blanco tequila - Cazcanes No.9 - had such a lame debut for their brand on this show because of their standard (80) proof No.7 release. I was looking forward to this episode forever, too! 😂😂😂
Cheers! We will be doing a high-proof blanco series like this as well. Stay tuned! Maybe the higher proof Cazcanes will do better!
By the way - Cazcanes reached out to us and is sending us a fresh bottle to compare with ours. They said have had a production/storage issue with their bottle stoppers that has been affecting flavor/aroma - so we'll see if we happened to have a tainted bottle.... Again, stay tuned!
Oh wow! This makes so much more sense! I had given in and started thinking Cazcanes No.7 was actually a bad blanco and something was just wrong with my palate 😂 hopefully this new bottle really is that different for y’all. Their No.9 takes the cake for me, though.
Thank you so much for letting me know 🙏🏽
P.S. Sorry for deleting my earlier comment if in case y’all took the time to reply to that one, too. I pretty much had said the same thing, and didn’t want to be repetitive with y’all.
7 Leguas has a bad aftertaste.
Don Fulano just has a bad taste period.
Not surprised by your findings!
El Tequileno blanco is my least fav. Do like their older expressions.
👍🏽
