Braintree Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Currently drinking some Mezcal. I'm not a fan of tequila at all, so I was skeptical to know it's made from agave, but I do have to say. It has quite a nice flavor. It's like the scotch of tequilas. Which is weird again because I don't much take to scotch. What do you guys have to say? Ever tried it? I'm currently imbibing with Los Nahuales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Iain C Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Don't see much of it in this country, and I haven't tried it. I'm a tequila-hater too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azatoth Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Tequila is the only liquor that has caused me to blackout. Not really a fan. Gold tequila with orange and cinnamon is nicer than the usual lime and salt, though, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delet... Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 i used to like tequila when i was a kid. Then went off it. Got into mezcal earlier this year, it has a lighter more balanced flavour, whatever that means. Tis quite yummy when you find a good one. I really wouldn't call it the scotch of tequilas though. Scotch is a pretty bold flavour, whilst mezcal tends to the mild. Guess it depends on your sense of taste what impression you are going to get though and i fucking hate scotch, another thing i used to like as a kid, so perhaps there's the mezcal of scotches out there for me, that'll turn me back onto that flavour profile. ;-p hehe.

jules Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I love the stuff. never had it until a few years ago. during a trip out to Sedona, az I had a few mezcal martinis, so smoky and delicious. I found the name of the one I was drinking was sombra but I can not get it in nj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Baph, i have this wheel of alcohol types that cycles like astronomical bodies past my field if interest. Since i started drinking some things like bourbon and kentucky whiskey and rum have orbited in and out of that zone of interest to my taste buds a few times. Less frequently have been things like cider, and tequila. And further out still lies scotch, it's like Neptune or perhaps something zooming around in the Oort Cloud. It may eventually come back into alignment with my slice of the sky, perhaps in a later age, when i've moved to Brittanny and taken up golf. We'll see.

Braintree Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 The one I'm drinking has a really smokey flavor, which reminds me of scotch. Didn't even give me a hangover. I might have to start drinking more of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcock Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 tequila is by far my favourite alcohol, ive only tried mid price meszal, around 20-25 quid a bottle, but found it unbearably fiery. watching drunken people eat maggots is always fun though.
