Yeyo Blanco High Proof

89 SCORE

“High Proof Yeyo Palomas are a go to on any hot summer day. For some of my whiskey drinking friends who tell me that want a little more “oomph” from a Tequila cocktail this is what I make them.”

Tequila G4 Reposado

89 SCORE

“G4 is such a great distillery and I love knowing that somewhere down in Mexico there is a self proclaimed mad scientist coming up with his own ways to make Tequila. Just that level of experimentation alone will always keep me interested in anything coming from Master Distiller Felipe Camarena.”

Fortaleza Blanco

94 SCORE

“A goat amongst goats. Fortaleza is known for making Tequila the way it was intended to be made. Now you have to pay for this type of quality, but it does deserve the hype it has around it. ”

KOKORO Tequila Plata

78 SCORE

“Kokoro definitely piqued my interest and I had to try it. While I did like it and think it is a unique flavor profile in the Blanco space the finish was a bit lighter for me. For some that might be a pro so no love lost and anyone who wants to pour me some I won’t be saying no anytime soon. ”

Cazcanes No. 9 Reposado

86 SCORE

“Cazcanes is a great way into the world of Tequila for people who have yet to experience what a touch of craftsmanship can do to the agave. They are helping forge a new world for Tequila drinkers and what they should expect from a distillery.”

“If you see this at a bar you know you’re in the right place. Anything Chava makes is a step above the rest and this is no exception. Great way to start the night. ”

Cava De Oro Añejo Black

84 SCORE

“This is one of the first tequilas that made me perk up and pay attention to having Tequila neat. Now as I’ve expanded palette I’d put this on the sweeter and of the spectrum and now I prefer something more agave forward and mineralistic. But it does have a special place in my heart for sending me down this Tequila rabbit hole. ”

El Negocio Tequila Joven

98 SCORE

“This is my favorite expression. It’s a blend of their Blanco and Repo and makes for a long lasting finish that grows in complexity. To me, it’s like the Blanco gets a hug from the Reposado at the end. Everyone I let try this is blown away by the profile of it.”

El Negocio Tequila Añejo

99 SCORE

“One year in these French Oak Barrels has made this Tequila something worth savoring. This is my go to when I want to make the moment a bit more special. Maybe a friend is visiting from out of state, I landed a new client, or…. it’s a Friday night. Just don’t waste it on someone who doesnt know their Tequila or pour them El Negocio’s Reposado first and then deliver them a masterclass on what aging and agave can do when done the right way.”

El Negocio Tequila Blanco

98 SCORE

“This smells just like walking into NOM 1123. Chava has done it again with another distinct Blanco that stands right next his other work. The blend of both Tahona and Roller Mill techniques is blended perfectly and adds a depth that stays with you from aroma to palette to finish.”

El Negócio Tequila Reposado

93 SCORE

“This repo is the perfect combination of valley floor agave and French Oak. The way these two elements complement each other make for an incredible sipping experience. ”
