My rule of thumb is buy the cheapest that says "100% de agave".


Its a good rule of thumb if you dont know what you are buying. There are some cheap tequilas that are good but most of the cheap ones suck and will make you feel like road kill which is why so many people talk shite on tequila. They get smashed on Jose cuervo or some $20 bottle and feel like arse the next day


Tequila like most alcohol's have multiple uses. White tequila is good for mixers and Reposado and Anejo is good for sipping and mixers as well...

The good tequilas are made from 100% agave which is why they are more expensive. The plants dont really mature until they are 6 or 7 years old and only grow in a little higher altitude in Mexico. The harvest is expensive as well.

a Few brands to try that you can find most places


My goto for almost everything. A little pricey but worth it



Avion silver is very good for making drinks and is pretty cheap compared to some. Its not bad and usually found anywhere



El moyor is very very good and is also cheap. Its just hard to find. If you see it, buy a bottle and try it



The 1942 is known as one of the best mass produced tequilas. I have a bottle and like it but for the money, the Julio Reposado is just as good. 1942 is very popular with the Mexican restaurants because they will mix you a $20 margarita with it. You wont know much difference except being broke
