What are you drinking right now?

Have you tried the Fortaleza Still Strength or Terralta 110 (made by the same person as G4/Pasote, just uses different water source) for cocktails?

I have not, but I’ll keep an eye for them. I don’t think I’ve seen either.

I was just talking about the del maguey vida, it’s cheap, easily found and tasty. Pretty darn smoky though, so you gotta use it right - can’t just swap out tequila for it in a cocktail.

I’m kinda drinking then straight atm, forgot if I showed you which

It's funny I haven't tried my bottle of vida straight, but maybe I should. The Del Maguey Chichiapa is really nice for sipping as a step up from the vida.

Oh yeah. And swap out that cointreau/orange liqueur for some ancho reyes...

Ancho reyes + mezcal is a great combination.

 

[sinnedk]

never had ancho reyes, will look into it

 

[Gibonius]

It's not the most versatile ingredient, but it's really nice in the stuff it works with.

I like the original Ancho Reyes slightly more than the Verde, but the latter is a lot more versatile for cocktails. Adds a nice spicy kick to margaritas and daiquiris, and makes a great mezcal old fashioned.

This one right?

 

[stephenaf2003]

Not sure what’s going on with me lately; perhaps the fall season is to blame but, it’s a beer for me again.

 

[sinnedk]

I like how everyone is on an Orion kick now

 

[tdes81]

This one right?

Yup! The red one is really good too.
