tequila...




"When it comes to tequila, I plead ignorance. If I’m lucky to be in the hands of a knowledgeable bartender or agave enthusiast, I happily let him/her guide me toward whatever’s right for a given cocktail (be it a traditional margarita or a Jaguar) or neat nightcap with beer chaser. But when I find myself confronting, without a lifeline, that overgrown jungle of tequila bottles on the back bar of your modern-day high-end Mexican restaurant, I balk — especially when the bartender can only describe what’s in each bottle with various synonyms for “awesome.”"

Above is a great blog exert from Drinkcboston.com for anyone who enjoys tequila but has no idea what they're on about. I will be putting this knowledge to good use at Mamasita's today over lunch... for the entrire article click here.
