I have, in the past two years, come to discover that with tequilas, just like rum, there are huge differences. Having discovered the finer Don Julio tequilas on a business trip, I was surprised how quickly I found myself making comparisons to my discovery many years ago of the differences between crappy and craftsmanship rums. I used to tell everyone I could not tolerate tequila. Then I found that there are truly good-tasting tequilas out there. Now I keep a bottle of Don Julio at home and share the discovery with others. I find the Don Julio brand is way better than the popular Patron brand which I really don't care for. They say Don Julio is "what the locals drink." I'd be interested in what TikiVato knows about this from his time down in Ensenada. Sorry if this is off-topic... Frank
