@Tricia is spot on. It was good in fact too good.Sometimes I wonder if they put lesser quality in the fancy containers just to distract from the quality and still justify the higher price.

Perhaps, but I've had that particular Tequila before and its quite good. Actuallly exceptionally good.Sometimes I wonder if they put lesser quality in the fancy containers just to distract from the quality and still justify the higher price.
Ever have Clase Azul tequila? Guests staying the weekend brought a couple of bottles. Age, altitude and indiscretion…we all feel like s..t today.
going the opposite direction, I recall when in college and better quality was not to be affordable. Had visitors from NZ, both rugby players who complained about the "piss beer" we were drinking out at the bars, but it was cheap and by the pitcher - lots and lots. Next day they both agreed one can get just as drunk.@Tricia is spot on. It was good in fact too good.
Yeah but there is a difference between college and the stage of life I'm at.going the opposite direction, I recall when in college and better quality was not to be affordable.

It could be me but I remember all the beer in college tasting like er piss. Probably because they were frat keggers with the cheapest possible draught beer.going the opposite direction, I recall when in college and better quality was not to be affordable.

Since I never drank until I was 40 I can't say that.I certainly do not miss the quality nor the quantity of what was consumed years ago.
I have cut way back on drinking but my ice cream consumption has increased. Trust me it has been an improvement.Since I never drank until I was 40 I can't say that.
Or maybe I could say that. I would probably be in better health if I didn't drink, however, when I didn't drink, I ate a lot more ice cream....
Hmmmm booze or ice cream....
I saw that somewhere, maybe at the bottle shop in Midtowne.
The interplay between science and art is a constant tension in winemaking. The top universities of course focus on the science. Absolutely critical to master, imho. But winemakers often depend too much on analysis and not enough on their palate. There are plenty of winemakers who, for example, just haven't tasted through the world of wine. Don't understand regional difference and stylistic choices. There are those who have. And there are those who really get the choices but don't have a command of the science. But it really is something that demands you master both and learn to let them talk to each other. IMHO, the most critical matter in modern winemaking.
Spouse likes it, inexpensive too at Sams club.I am told Tuaca sells great in mountain towns - not so well everywhere else.
Cocktail of choice in our house.
Tuaca is a key ingredient in a Hot Apple Pie.View attachment 163312

As a Kiwi myself, I must officially disown them.......going the opposite direction, I recall when in college and better quality was not to be affordable.

Starting a long weekend and, well, not postponing the sloth and debauchery ...
I am eating a frozen burrito, with salsa from a jar.
