There has been a plethora of flavored booze that has less alcohol in it. Not so sure if it's bad or good. It attracts the young folk. Y'all decide.

We have been drinking this Amendrado since 1966, when we found it at a liquor store in San Felipe. At that time it was $2.50 U.S. a one liter bottle. Prices have gone up and down over the years, but it is currently priced at $6.30 U.S. per bottle at Liqores Don Pisto in Rosarito as well as Puerto Nuevo. It is also currently available at Calimax for around $7.00 U.S. per bottle.
This stuff will turn you into an alcoholic!:bounce:

what's "an average of 3 years"...????
and is that a 750 ml bottle?

who wrote that ad copy?

0 to 6 years can be an average of 3.
so can 2 to 4.

for the price i'm thinking good Irish whisky.
or Sauza hornitos. or even Comemorativo.

speaking of good sauce...has anyone tried Tito's tripple distilled vodka made in Texas, i think Austin of all places. it is killer good.

Speaking of the Lord Dennis.....:light: - hey, what happened to the saint emoticon?
well anyway...i used to work with this guy in my youth when starting out in the building biz...he was a grizzled old line head supt.

he told me how every night after work and even sometimes at lunch he'd have to have a talk with "the Lord".
later i found out it was Lord Calvert.

to this day i often tell mi esposa...honey, i'm going out and have a talk with the Lord.:bounce::bounce:

There's more heads that will fit on one page. If you can't find the one you want, go off site, then come back and it will probably be there, Lord permitting. :saint:

Okay no one has come forward with a Costco Tequila review so here it is... My wife bought a bottle of it last week, we like to keep a bottle of "vitamin T" in the fridge for the occasional shot and a pacifico. I must say it's definately a little harsh, compared to some of the finer anejos. For the price it's not bad but it belongs in a margarita not straight up.
Chamoucos is my favorite...servre it cold!!!

Thanks, bajafreaks, for your opinion.

As I stated when putting this up there, I'm not a VitaminT fan. VitR and VitW, yes, but not VitT.

I suggested Costco Tequila on another website recently and it pretty much got hammered.

I have not tasted it..and even if I did, I-would-not-be-qualified-to-judge-if-it-was-good-or-not...and thanks for the personal opinion of 'freaks.

Hopefully others will chime in with their first hand Costco Tequila tasting opinions. I know there's a few tqa fans around here, I was hoping to turn them on to a good thing.









I can't believe I'm here working this thread and I don't even drink t'killya!

Aw well! I did start it~~~

As a newbie, you should get introduced to the search function at the top of the page. There was a review of Kirkland's Tequila.

Hi Gull, I actually found this thread by using the search feature, I typed in Costco Tequila and this is the only one that came up, by Bajanuts. Sorry didn't mean to step on any toes here. ;D

After the third shot, it all tastes like water.. to me.. that was my big problem when I USED to drink the stuff.. it goes down so easy after the first few.. was never one to sip, and didn't like fruit, umbrella's, or anything else with my "shot" might have a beer with it.. and that would make it even worse...

I don't even like to think about it.. it wasn't pretty:):)

Just bought two bottles and sampled the first. I always buy Patron Anejo for sipping and Hornitos for margs. I like Kirkland better than Patron. And $23.99 for a full liter absolutely blows away Patron at $50 plus for .75 liters. I'll get more. A cool bottle too, if they'd get rid of the Kirkland logo!

I think that Kirkland logo is a decal....if so, just spray some WD-40 on it, let it sit and peel off with a straight razor blade.

we bought a bottle and my opinion NASTY!!! It ain't Don Julio maybe it's his brother Dick Julio. I'll stick with Don Julio or Tres Generacion much better.

At last, castaway$.... someone who agrees with my opinion of this tequila.

When first I tasted it I wished I'd saved my dinero toward a nice bottle of Tesoro, but I figured the Costco stuff would taste better when mixed for a margarita. Nope - it doesn't.

Given everyone else seems to like it just fine, I must have different taste buds. Similar ones to castaway$.
