Well, I was going to say that I'm not sure because it's not margarita season. After some consideration, it's been decided that is inappropriate. Instead, thank you for an excuse to try it!

Before I get started, I need to admit that I don't drink much tequila anymore, and don't buy most of my own alcohol anymore either (I've trained friends and family to purchase it for Birthdays and Christmas - and share liberally to ensure they get me good stuff) so my pricing may be off a bit.

Kirkland tequila review.

Smooth. Always smooth. Bite from alcohol is all on the back end where it is muted, don't really have to cut it to drink it. All the primary tequila flavors are there, in a nice balance, no particularly strong or extra/unusual flavors. The flavors start at the tip of the tongue, transition rapidly to the back (or only the back if you toss the shot back), not much middle. Solid mouth feel, mild bouquet.

I'd call it a right down the middle with no flair or character. If you are looking for a premium and are willing to experiment I think you could find something with character that you would prefer in the $30+ range /750mL. Below that, I suspect it will be one of the better players. I don't think anything in the <$20/750mL range will touch it. For me, I think it will make BITCHIN margaritas!

If you are curious, the bottles that I spent my own money on are the Dalwhinnie scotch, Mastersons rye and Jack Daniels single barrel bourbon (in the black box)

This is what I'm saving for a rainy day .

I just picked this up in Cabo San Lucas yesterday. Have no clue what it tastes like but I'm sure its better than the crap they were serving at the resort in Cabo.

I like to mix it up between 1792 or
Crown but lately I have been drinking this.

There's some Crown in that line up I've never seen

I'm fortunate enough to live within a few hours of the Canadian border. I haven't seen Cask16 in the US in years but I found several bottles in Canada. The Limited Edition is distributed only in Canada I believe. The red XR is sold out but some can be found on Craigslist for around $400. Blue XR is still around at somewhat reasonable prices. Crown is supposedly coming out with a new whiskey. I'm looking forward to it:)

I like my whiskey in the bourbon flavor :yum:

Got me some Pyrat rum tonight! Sittin by the fire pit at the hotel being a creepy old guy staring at all the chicks in the pool. Yeahhhhhhh. Lol

**** you...you're younger than me, I think :ugh2:

Lol. Yeah. You got me by 3-4 years from what I gather from previous posts.

I'm a 70's baby if that helps

I'm guessing '77 or '78.

Thanks Owen, great review! I like don julio silver myself, but i dont drink much tequila anymore either, however im all for margaritas :yum: After your review, i think ill give the costco brand a try. Thanks again. :tiphat:

I myself am not a big fan of Grey Goose, so this is good to know. ive been wanting to try this vodka for some time now. As you can see i really dont discriminate against any brands, i just like to try 'em all and then decide on which ill buy regularly :rofl2:

Last weekend, I busted open a bottle of Crown Royal Ive had and made a crown and coke, tasted good. Then I had a gentleman Jack and coke, holy crap, absolutely crapped on the crown and coke. Sitting here now sipping gentleman Jack on the rocks whilst waiting for xbox live to load lol

I like both of these, but mix 'em with ginger ale :yum:

I switched to GJ a year or so ago. Its my go to for the night at home. I go to Four Roses SB and Makes when I have guests... it seems to be what they like.

I haven't tried many and find myself curious when out but too uneducated to know what's worth trying and what's crap in a nice bottle.

Cigars Ill add (2 or 3 a year); Davidoff Grand Gru No. 4 and Zino Zclass 643. Now I'm not a smoker, so don't hate me if they aren't your par.
