Tequila Taste-off
What can I say--I'm a loyal Costco shopper. I've been happy with about all of their Kirkland brand products. When I saw that there was a Costco Kirkland brand of tequila, I had to try it. I don't drink, though, at least not very much. Larry, Nephew David, and I got together this afternoon for a tequila taste-off to try the Kirkland brand and a few others we had on hand. In a blind tasting, here is how we ranked the 4 tequilas we had on hand in order of preference: Patron Silver, Herradura Silver, Herradura Natural, and Kirkland Anejo. Although we ranked Kirkland's last, we agreed that it wasn't awful. In fact, it would do just fine for a party with Margaritas. I did see giant bottles of Patron Silver at Costco, but don't think I'll buy one. I have noticed that people here tend to take their tequila seriously. There are chat groups about various brands and the bars that serve them. Maybe tequila is medicinal since it's made from the agave plant, which heals burns. Maybe I should try drinking more to see...
