Jose Cuervo vs Craft Tequila Blind Taste Test (The Results Shocked Me!) Can the world's most recognizable tequila brand compete with some of the best craft tequilas on the market? In this blind tequila tasting, I compare Jose Cuervo Tradicional against three highly respected craft tequila brands: Mijenta, Arriesgado, and Entremanos. Without knowing which tequila is in each glass, I rank them based solely on aroma, flavor, complexity, minerality, agave character, and overall drinking experience. This tasting proves just how important blind reviews are and how expectations can influence what we think we taste. Featured Tequilas: • Jose Cuervo Tradicional • Mijenta • Arriesgado • Entremanos Lot 4 Topics Covered: • Blind Tequila Tasting • Craft Tequila vs Commercial Tequila • Tequila Reviews • Agave Flavor Comparison • Traditional Tequila Production • Tequila Ranking • Best Blanco Tequila Watch until the end to see which tequila came out on top and whether the biggest name in tequila could compete with these craft producers. © Tasting Tequila with Brad

In this video, we'll explore: • Don Rico Reposado Review • Highland vs Valley Agave • Traditional Tequila Production • Reposado Tequila Tasting Notes • American Oak Barrel Influence • Agave Forward Tequila • Small Batch Tequila Review Does three months of barrel aging add enough complexity, or is this just a dressed-up blanco?

I Usually Avoid Honey Tequila… But This One Surprised Me! | Blue Star Reposado Honey Review

Honey tequila review, Blue Star Reposado Honey review, infused tequila review, flavored tequila review, Blue Star Spirits tequila, honey tequila tasting notes, tequila reviews 2026. When I first heard about Blue Star Reposado Honey Tequila, I wasn’t sure what to expect. As someone who usually prefers traditional additive-free tequilas, flavored and infused tequilas aren’t normally my first choice. But after seeing Blue Star recognized at the Agavos Awards and receiving a bottle to review, I decided to give it a fair shot. Produced at NOM 1589 in Jalisco, Mexico, Blue Star Reposado Honey combines reposado tequila aged 3-4 months with 100% natural honey sourced from artisan beekeepers in Jalisco. The result is a sweet but surprisingly balanced tequila that still allows some agave character to shine through. In this review I’ll cover: Aroma and tasting notes Production methods Honey infusion process Who this tequila is for Whether it’s worth the $44.99 price tag Have you tried a honey tequila before? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
