I just recently found out that all tequila is made from 100% blue agave or it can't be called tequila on the bottle - it's a law in Mexico. "100% blue agave" is a scam for gringos. TJ - I am impressed by your committment to learning the original tropical drinks from the Grog Log. To me, it's a necessary step to get a taste of what the tiki bar experience in days past was really like. Not to mention the way it makes one feel!
