The juice of the agave can cause acute skin irritation. This is due in part to calcium oxalate crystals that form from the minerals the plant absorbs. Considering chalk is calcium carbonate, I wonder if that is flavor note being detected?
i found this video while i was sipping on some Hornitos Anejo tequila. I was just going to listen to a bit and move onto another video but your accent pulled me in and before i knew it i enjoyed the vid so much, didn’t want it to end. Very informative.
Hi rafly, I’ve read abit about the tequila on the internet now. However I’m really surprised with what I read, so here I am asking for your guidance and hopefully education. The danish version of Wikipedia, not sure if they are all the same and just translated. But my question is, the site stated that any tequila with a golden colour is coming from E150, not from cask influence.
Do you know anything about this, since it seems kinda odd?
Yes, Ocho is one I’ve had on my list to try for awhile. (That being said, remember that Tequila is just a subclass of Mezcal. And there are some Mezcals made outside of Jalisco in the softer Tequila style. Actually, since they’re more obscure, they can often be quite a bargain!)
Also, it’s because of intermediate cases like this that I introduced plusses and minuses into my scores! So this’d probably be a 90+ from me. 🙂
I’ve had a lot of inexpensive tequila, and some deemed “top shelf.” Then I’ve had stuff like this. The difference is night-and-day. A good tequila is like a fine, fine brandy.
I hate to use the word ironic since hipsters use it.
But what makes you think I’m not the real deal? That would make me 18 and legal to drink what I want.
again trying german, heh? 😀
GLOCKENGASSE! but nice try. want to try the numbers?
siebenundvierzig elf! (47 11) COLOGNE! was just beaten by our local football team and i had some drams for that event.
u received a message from me ralfy! it would be super kind if you read and answer to it 🙂
Hey Ralfy, you say that spirits bottled at higher strengths are better, yet you often recommend adding water to them. Can you explain this apparent contradiction and whats the difference between the distillery watering it down or the drinker. Thanks.
Nice, Ralfy! Mixing it up a bit. I like it.

Nice hat too:)
hey, ralfy! ever consider doing some beer reviews?

Don’t forget the armagnac then. The better variety of cognac(to me at least).
My bet is that one day, we’ll get a video on Scottish independence from our special scottish correspondent, Ralfy.
Ralfy, I noticed that you post the fewest reviews in April, and this year is no exception. Spring fever?
i can see my joke fell flat. lol.
You got the rhythm like Obama, keep it up.
looks delicious

Tequila in a glencairn glass. Love it.
Naturally, Ralfy dude. I meant no offence to anyone. x

Siete leguas. 7 leguas.

It is a sipper Tequila not a mixer..
Good to see you like tequila. Waiting to try the 7 leagues. It is the best.
Ah tequilla..like it..cheers sensei!..and hölkyn kölkyn;)

You mentioned Cognac. I was just wondering if you plan on reviewing some in the near future. What are your thoughts on it?
Your username is an ironic one, right? Surely Justin Bieber has no fans that are old enough to drink alcohol. x
That is an agave. An aloe vera plant has “spikier” fronds. Ralfy’s plant has smooth leaves.
