    Pura Vida Gold

    Pura Vida Gold

    Triple distilled and lightly “rested” in high quality, American oak bourbon barrels, Pura Vida Gold is a reposado. In Spanish, reposado means “rested.” Now we’re not saying our Gold is lazy or lying down on the job or anything. In fact, just the opposite. Pura Vida Gold enlivens any occasion with a combination of superb smoothness and great taste.

    Los Abuelos/La Fortaleza Reposado

    Los Abuelos/La Fortaleza Reposado

    There were many things I intended to do on a recent trip to Mexico, things I wanted to see…but only one bottle on my list that I just ‘had’ to pick up whilst I was there. Los Abuelos, or La Fortaleza as it’s know outside Mexico, is created by the legendary Guillermo Sauza, fifth generation tequila maker and decendent of Don Cenobio Sauza.

    el Zarco Gold

    el Zarco Gold

    It’s not often that we take the time to review a mixto on this site, but we thought for el Zarco we’d give it a go in the hope that it would be better than Cuervo. Want to know what we though…then read on.

    Sauza Hornitos Reposado

    Sauza Hornitos Reposado

    Summer is fast approaching, although looking out the window you’d be forgiven for thinking otherwise (my car was recently hammered with hail stones the size of golf balls). Stay positive, I’m sure summer is just around the corner now. One tequila I always tend to pick up around this time is a bottle of Sauza Hornitos reposado for those afternoon margaritas.

    La Cava de Don Agustín Reposado

    La Cava de Don Agustín Reposado

    My expectations are always low when I’m looking for tequila in the drink section of an English supermarket. Chances are that they usual ‘mixto’ subjects will be there and the possibility of a 100% agave tequila being on the shelf ranges from slim to none. However, to my surprise I’ve noticed Don Agustín appearing in more and more places.
