Bajagrouper, I pulled those prices up on the internet last Friday. I have since gone back in to other sites, and I stand corrected. You can get it cheaper at other places. But, those prices at the duty free store are the best I've seen anywhere so far.

This is the link where I got those high prices...

size of the bottle & more


I've also noticed that a lot of the Tequilia bottles in Mexico have dropped in size from un litro to 960 ml...and 38% instead of 40% alc. is the norm now a days...que lastima:fire:

Blame that on the shortage of Blue agave that we are experiencing right now.

but why then


is the Tequilia found in the USA 40% and the bottles are un litro...there may have been a shortage of blue agave a couple years ago,but have you driven around the state of Jalisco lately? it's growing in every nook and crany...ol

The Single malt Scotch craze has reached saturation. Tequila is the "New, Hip Spirit". Demand has caught up with supply. Econ 101
