My friend- never swirl spirits like you do wine. Swash forward and back- lightly. Also- smell with your mouth open. It allows the alcohol upfront smell to dissipate a little. Some friendly pointers. Love the videos. Keep up the good work!
Don Julio 70 or regular Don Julio añejo are better for the price. But honestly get the bottles from Mexico, those tend to taste better than the bottles you find in the USA.
I spoke to a representative at Total Wine and Owner of a large liquor store near my home back in January/February and they both said that prices on various products were gonna jump in the following months from tariffs and suppy/demand issues.....its made some Tequila & Cognac jump $25-$75 a bottle which is just Silly....Hell I remember getting majority of XO Cognac for $90-$130 & Now they're $175-$225
I was in Portland yesterday and stumbled across the Clase Anejo and it was very tempting! I opted to get the collectors edition Casino Azul with all 3.
Don Julio disappointed me with this one. Their private cask collection has more flavors and is much more smoother than this over priced bottle of regular tasting tequila. Clase Azul Repo is much better if I had to decide between the 2
Clase Azul Añejo is overpriced syrup. It tastes nothing like other Tequilas super sweet and full of additives. Your paying for a pretty bottle. Just my opinion.
@@BenOosha Hell yeah! Did you ever get to try the Fortaleza Anejo Lot 42/43 - A and if so what was your take on it? Keep up the vids Playboy, Happy Holidaze and a very fun New Years
@@j.vosier6786 Good high quality tequila should be served at room temperature. Don't add ice it will mess up the flavors. Don't shoot it too. Just pour it in a glass, sip on it. Once you take a good sip Don't swallow it right away. Move it around your palate (open up the flavors) for a few seconds then swallow it.
Both are over-hyped and over priced...nothing in those bottles justifies the cost. trash tequilas. So many better tequilas on the market that are less expensive(under 100) than CA or 1942. CA bottle looks like a glorified Mrs. Butterworth's syrup bottle for a reason. 600? holy crap what a rip off!

Yes agree! Cheers 🥂

That’s what I’m hearing. Next trip I’m loading up! Cheers 🥂

100% agree! I’ve been noticing this on everything!! Even Costco bumped up prices on all alcohol.
Nah thats legalized robbery jesus christs
Absolutely right! I just bought 1942 for $219 without tax.......I'm still in shock because of price tag
I find that bottle for $450 is that good?

Amazing buy!!! I’d get the same if I could. Cheers 🥂
Go Portland! :P
You’re ballin 🤑
how does the Clase Azul Anejo compare to the Adictivo Imperial ? Nice AP btw
Great idea for a follow up video. BTW AP to match the bottle 😆
So is this the first time tasting azul because it’s two bottles in the back?
Love clase Azul. Cheers 🥂
I have the clase azul añejo. Makes wonderful margaritas
I have a video coming out with Clase Azul Reposado classic margarita 👌🏼 Cheers 🥂
Why would you make margaritas out of such a high end tequila?
Putting this tequila in a margarita? Are you 16?
Tequila is LIFE!!!
Tequila Diet! Cheers 🥂
Clase azul, tequila for tourist

100% agree!
@@BenOosha 1942 started to taste like the reviews right after I was drinking Clase Azul. But on first sip. Just taste like regular tequila
Definitely not worth the $170 price tag these days.

Just my opinion.
I’d love to see that Azul vs 1942 Ultiima Reserva
Hey. I have that in the pipeline. Coming soon. Cheers 🥂

Que piensas de Esperanto Tequila
Creo que el diseño de la botella es muy bonito. Todavía no he probado el anejo pero lo hare pronto! Salud 🥂
Your channel is underrated.
Thank you! Happy holiday’s. Cheers 🥂
CA Anejo, is out of my $$$. What do you think here: Clase Azul Reposado vs Herradura Legend vs 1942? Yeah, I know, Reposado vs Anejo's
Hey that’s a good idea… maybe I’ll make a video on it next week. Cheers 🥂
$140 vs $500+ 🥃🤔
Hi. Prices definitely fluctuate depending on what part of the country. Cheers 🥂
Have you heard of Dobel 50 extra añejo?
Yeah… not bad. I’ll see if I still have the bottle for a video! Cheers 🥂
@@BenOosha i have a limited edition Dobel 50 Extra Añejo 1968 special edition. I been holding it since it’s rare and keeps going up in price.
Azul is too sweet-not that good in terms of drinking a good tequila
El tequileño gran reserva añejo. Blows both of these out the water for $85. 1942 and clase Azul use additives.
@@edgarvargas6764 do you mix it or drink it straight?

Very informative
Clase Azul bottle is worth more than the actual tequila..I bet the bottle is like 300 bucks
😆 100% … the bottles are definitely very impressive 💪🏼
mass produced bottles and painted by prostis on their time off
Clase azul tastes like nothing but mellowing addictives and vanilla, delicious but not tequila. I still kept the bottles though.
Cheers 🥂
Your tastebuds are shot.
There’s better tequila away than clear azul neta 🧐
Do videos on the clase azul more expensive bottles 🙌
I am owner of retail liquor store in Winter Park FL called Big C Liquors, stop by if you’re in the area.
Go to Mexico tequila Jalisco and you well see
Mid-range tequila, making “gringos” believe (marketing and bottle) that they are buying the “best tequila in the world” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣.
My friend. I support your efforts. But you need a lot of research and knowledge on the product you are critiquing.
There both expensive
Cabo wabo. Amigo
Cheers 🥂
Your paying for a bottle not the tequila with these 👎
Definitely this dude do not see in really what’s a good tequila 🧐
Jorge, do you even drink tequila?
Cheers 🥂
My point of view, drink what you like and don't criticize everyone will have a different palate.
Taste are subjective
42!
42 is good! Cheers 🥂

Claze azul is complete garbage
