    I’ve followed you for a couple of years, here and there. And I’m barely seeing this video, and I’m so thankful you made videos about additives and the amount of knowledge you have. But I’m also saddened cuz Addictivo was my favorite. Lol also, when I first started drinking tequila I started with Gran Centenario, and I remember going back to it and thinking it taste different. I’m glad I wasn’t crazy cuz you kinda confirmed it for me. My taste buds do not lie, and neither do yours! Keep doing what you do man! Great stuff

    Hi Times - great tequila selection. I find your shopping trip videos really interesting - it is helpful to see you scan the shelves and give a quick thumbs up/thumbs down on the tequilas in stock. I am always on the look out for a good liquor store within driving distance of the LA area so please keep them coming. If you find your way to Tlaquepaque it would be great to see you take us through shelves at El Buho.

    Is 512 diffused too? That's from Texas. It's like half of the products are not good quality or they are celebrity tequilas. There are many many good tequilas but the industry is kind of depressing. At the end is all about the money.

    I have 3questions
    1. Have you ever visited Jalisco as we would like to go.
    2. You mention "Difused" often. Can you elaborate?
    3.. I see several tequilas on other reviews high recommended like Clase Azul and you don't seem to like them. Can you tell us more on why?

    • @TheTequilaHombre
      @TheTequilaHombre  3 года назад +2

      I am glad you like the channel and it has helped you. I would be glad to answer your questions.
      1) Yes, many times. You can watch the video on Terralta and see pictures from the distillery when I visited.
      2) A diffuser is a machine that some distilleries use to make tequila that is more efficient than traditional processes but makes lower quality tequila. Brands that use them are brands like Jose Cuervo, Cazadores, Hornitos, Sauza and more. its large industrial brands.
      3) Clase Azul among others used artificial sweeteners and additives to make their tequila taste better. THey taste artifical and not like real tequila. People that don't know better like them because they are sweet and vanilla-y. I don't like that in tequila. I like the natural flavors.
