Tequila is easily one of the most popular liquor anywhere in the country and in the world. This party drink is made from agave plants and is exclusively produced in Mexico. Tequila is known for being the main ingredient in a good margarita and for great "liquid courage" shots as well.

Types of Tequila

Blanco tequilas taste the purest and are commonly a blend of earthy and semi-sweet tones. They are rested in stainless steel tanks for no more than 60 days.

Joven tequilas are typically not purely agave. These types are often colored and flavored with caramel, glycerin, and other additives. They were widely popular until the late 1900s where people began to crave tequilas that were higher in quality.

Reposado tequilas are aged for two months in wooden casks. The aging process gives the liquor a nice and mellow flavor that's light on the tongue.

Anejo tequila is often aged in white French oak or bourbon barrels for a year, with some going for three. These liquor tend to taste smooth with a little hint of caramel from the oaks.

Extra-Anejo tequila is also called muy anejo (extra-old). These tequilas spend three years in barrels. The process creates a flavor profile that can rival some of the best and oldest whiskeys in the market.
