i chose 6 'top-rated' tequilas from tastings.com, regardless of price, and tasted them. my only consideration was that they be 100% agave as noted above.
none of them tasted any better than my original find (cazadores reposado at about $30 USD for 750 ml). in fact the cazadores was more 'even', without sudden bursts of flavor and alcohol. well good luck  |

A friend of mine had a couple of bottles once and told me that an old traveler he met used to sniff tequila from a theespoon. Of course we had to try this and it's quite an expierence, straight to the brain, lol.
 Anyone familiar with goldstrike btw? |

"Porfidio" is my Tequila of choice, smooth, but, expensive!
May have to try the theespoon thing Baron.... first time I heard of Goldstrike was this morning from your post! Happy Day!  |

when i started reading reviews such as this one, i began to think the writers maybe had a few shots before writing
"Brilliant copper color. Lavish aromas of dark chocolate, dried black cherries, cola nut, blossoms, leather, toffee, and roasted nuts lead to a super smooth, oily, and fruity sweet full-bodied palate of chocolate covered cherries and apricots, sweet brown spices, cola nuts, suede, and caramel. Finishes effortlessly with a long, complex, and effortless fade of chocolate, dried fruits, and peppery spice. A wonderfully smooth and rich añejo with a great combination of elegance and power. Outstanding." |

May have to try the theespoon thing Baron.... first time I heard of Goldstrike was this morning from your post! Happy Day! looks like some kind of massive scandal was involved... http://www.tequila.net/tqforum/index.php/topic,82.0.html [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Jun 27, 2008 9:37:30 AM] |

Very interesting, but, wherever it comes from it is still very good and expensive!
Thanks for the info....! |
