Sipping/Drinking Tequila Reco?
-
What is a good tequila you can pour into a glass with rocks and drink?
I'm not talking swill to mix into a drink. or stuff that is so pricey to be out of touch.
Just a reasonable choice for a neighboring lady who drinks tequila.
Thanks!

I am not of the belief that there is any tequila like this

LOL, what does that mean?

Herradura Reposado (not sure where your threshold is for 'pricey'). And using ice to sip tequila is doing it wrong.
-
I think what you're looking for is called Scotch.

Well, my neighbor came over recently.
She brought a bottle of tequila, and drank it over ice.
I am looking to buy something to have for her the next time. That is what I am looking for.

Pretty sure it was clear, BTW.

@BRRABill then get silver Herradura (plata). Unaged, young tequilas are clear (and generally less pricey). "Reposado" means "rested" (3-5 years aged, golden color), and "anejo" means "old" or "aged" (whiskey brown), must be more than 5 years old by law.

This stuff is good, chill it for a bit first. Great sipping tequila.

Most people don't like having tequila "derecho" they consider it too strong,that's why most people having tequila usually combine it with something.
You can drink tequila (actually anything ) however you prefer that could be with or without ice, "derecho" or mixed, but down here in Mexico we actually never drink it with ice when having it "derecho" from our "caballito".For us, ice dilutes the flavor and regular icecubes don't actually fit in our standard "caballitos".
We either drink it just by itself or with lemon and salt. Something like this:
-
As for the recommendation, my wife only drinks tequila "derecho" and she really loves driking Herradura Plata =), not too strong not to soft and doesn't give her a hangover.

Thanks for all the information!
Makes me thirsty!

We should have a section for this! Alcohol, types, great mixes, recommendations!

A whole section for Scotch? Seems excessive but I like the way you think.
-
LOL.
I just can't get into those types of drinks.
All beer, all the way.
I am just about to crack open a case of Bell's (sampler pack), but waiting until just the right moment.

No, excessive would be having a section for Islay and a section for mainland.

Indeed, but that is a world I want to live in.
