“Don’t judge a book by its cover,” goes the old saying. Apparently it’s true with Tequila as well!

This whiskey is for someone, though I don’t know who.

Ilegal Mezcal Reposado

Ilegal Mezcal Reposado

A reposado mezcal? They’re out there! On the basis of this bottle, I say there should be more. Not everyone agrees!

Hijos de Villa Reposado Tequila

Hijos de Villa Reposado Tequila

If you’re gunning for a great tequila, I’d say to set your sights higher. Still, this isn’t bad. Inexplicably, it isn’t bad.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Oxley Gin

Oxley Gin

Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Siete Leguas Añejo Tequila

Siete Leguas Añejo Tequila

If it were cheaper, it would be mostly fine. But it isn’t, and I feel silly paying so much for a study in restraint.
Overall Rating: ★☆☆

Rittenhouse Rye

Rittenhouse Rye
