Tevado is a brand I've been purchasing in major grocery stores in Nor Cal. $30.00-$35.00 for a 1.75 liter bottle.

i vote for Hornitos and Comemorativo as 2 very good ever day drinkin tequilas without busting the bank or dipping into IRAs. $17-$20 a bottle
variously around town, like Bevmo and Osco.
keep it in the freezer and the shots are smooth.
chase it with homemade sangrita, ummmm.
ok that's what i'm having today. also makes a killer michelada.
1. beer, ice, lime, tequila, sangrita cap.
combine all tall rimmed glass, stir. drink. repeat till snockered.

When in BAJA, I stop at Licores Don Pisto in Puerto Nuevo and load up on Tequila Jarana. They have the largest bottle (1 ltr.) for $7.00 US. Any
cheaper than that and you can get the Viva Villa, and when mixed with margarita mix, will get you flat-lined rapido.
The best deal for US side tequila that tastes great is either Hornitos or Cazadores (the one with the Buck on the label). Either one you can get at
Costco. BevMo is somewhat more expensive.
By the way, Don Pisto's has the best prices in all of Baja, and you get discounts by purchasing by the case...good luck in stashing it on the trip
back to the US. I usually leave two bottles in a bag in the back seat and declare them to US customs. Just don't leave your dark glasses on and don't
look nervous when answering questions. Pray that the car in front of you at the border gets searched and you'll be in the clear.

Ey Lencho!
Viva Villa is actually the licor that the locals drink in most of Mexico. The way I learned to drink it from them was by adding hot sauce and lime to
the shooter. It's not a sipping drink, but flat-lines you rapido. One positive side effect is that if you are spending the night with a chick and you
don't drink too much of it, you can count on a couple of hours of hard time!  Then finish off the evening with a toque.

I am guessing that my BB code did not work.
Does anyone use the schemes on the BBCode?
Perhaps someone can instruct me how to use them, and perhaps how to insert the fish that swims back & forth in Lencho's posting. I haven't been
around this posting long enough to learn all the tricks!

Hornitos only comes in one version. And, it is a good tequila, but hardly a low-priced sleeper.

but occasionally i enjoy going on a mission.
and if/when i set a goal i like to reach it.
sometimes drinking has a purpose, sometimes it does not.
and yes, iflyfish - we can buzz Vandy's place at Nopolo - but i'll be sober, you can pound a few Michiladas 1st - i'll make em, i do really well at
that.

To my knowledge, Cazadores does not make an anejo, only the reposado.
The word reposado is supposed to be used only with the best tequilas available, however, since there are no laws against using the word, most tequilas
use the word.
Perhaps someone else knows about the Guaycura. I have never tasted it, but the bottle looks interesting!
