My takeaway from this is if I drink the first half of the bottle one night, the responsible thing to do is drink the other half the next night? That’s some advice I can get behind

This is by a distant far the most underrated yt channel I've ever come across

Being born in Guadalajara, near Tequila, Jalisco. And as a Mexican, I’m truly proud of the work you have done here. ¡Salud!

Love tequila, 16mins later I'm left with a newfound admiration for the product and process! Great video!

I love this! My mom was raised in Tequila, Jalisco and took my sister and I since we were children. I still remember the roads being made of stone and jumping on them on our way to the plaza. Just went in March and am super excited to go back next summer to see the family. It really is a magical town. 💕

I'm 24 , never had taquila before, I was more vodka whiskey type of guy but I wanted to experience more so I came here to see and learn about taquila. You guys made it fun to watch and very professional and simple! Thank you 👍🏻

You have scratched the surface of Mexico! Once you learn Tequila, explore Mezcal, the scotch of Mexico. I travel to Tijuana for business monthly, so much good food and drink to experience in that culture!

Damn! That was one of the best videos I've seen on tequila by far. Nice job, man.

The most informative video on Tequila I have ever come across. Very concise, brief yet covered all that is needed to be addressed. 👍👍

The best thing about this video is no Patron or other celebrity made shit

the quality of this video is A+, you definitely are underrated, new sub!!

A tall glass, ice, a generous shot of Corralejo Reposado Tequila, a shot or big dash of fresh lime juice and fill the rest of the glass with lemonade. My FAVORITE summer-time evening drink.

So glad i found this video! I recently discovered Tequila and I am often amazed at the range of tastes. Great information, thanks!!

Jeff, really appreciate you making this video. Perfect introduction to understanding the fundamentals of tequila. I searched Clayton from La Cata immediately - found his website and will look into a tour with Clayton especially given that La Cata closed - what a shame, looked like a fantastic place. Thanks again, keep them coming. You have one new fan now.

Damn, this video is so badass. I have learned so much about tequila. My family is from Guadalajara, Jalisco. I wanna visit this city.

Awesome video, very succinct and easy to understand. Especially liked the explanation of why tequila should be more expensive than other spirits.

Impressive quality channel. Subscribed.

Very informative video for a newbie. Thank you.

It is nice to see people with a passion for something. Informative, simple, and to the point. Great job!

I met a big tequila producer he was telling me how in mexico the law does not apply to tequila producers , they can do whatever they want , just pay them . :):):):):)

I'm 73 years old now and I've been drinking tequila since I was in my late twenties, and I've tried some of the most expensive brands out there, and I really liked all of them, but I'm retired and on Social Security and I can't afford to buy expensive tequila, so whenever I buy it I always buy Sauza clear (not the gold). It has a great taste and is very smooth, and it gives you a good buzz. I have a pretty good idea that if you sat and drank some of the top shelf tequila with a 'tequila expert' and after four or five shots, without him looking, you switched his glass with a glass of Sauza, that he wouldn't know the difference. Just sayin'.

Tons of great info. Thank you for this well-made video!

Yeah!!!!!!!!!! New Episode! New Adventure of *THE TEQUILA!!!*

This looks like a great series. Glad I stumbled upon it!

I went to tequila in 2018 and man o man , the BEST tequilas in the world sit here in this small magical town

Quite educative in its content. Thanks dear.

Super informative! Thank you

very informative. Thanks a ton.

Fantastic informative look, thank you!!

Thanks for the video. I needed to educate myself. All I knew was to get 100% Agave. I rode my motorcycle from Portland to Ushuaia Argentina in 2016 and ran out of gin near Mexico City. So I switched to tequila and have been drinking it ever since. State side I drink mostly 1800 Silver.

Brilliant video - Good job

Wonderfully explained..simply amazing..

Excellent video. Well-made. So informative too.

I love the Blanco agave tequilas! I sip and do not do shots as I like to taste the requila, so no salt, but sometimes orange or lime. Excellent, educational video! Thank you!

Very well explained. Thank you!

Amazing, educational video. I can’t wait to visit his bar! Thank you!

Great educational video on the subject, thanks for doing this, I learned alot.

Gentleman and a scholar.. He wear stars with a reason

So glad I bumped into your channel. I love tequila and want to learn about it. I have learned the hard way about beer, and wine, just buying different brands and tasting. A slow and expensive way, and sometimes not so good tasting products. Now I can cut down on time, cost, and narrow it down to get to the good stuff. I don't like oak barrel aged spirits, or wines. Now I can hunt for the Blanco brands first and hopefully find one I like. Thanks for the education and information on a very interesting form of alcohol.

I've said this on other videos of yours but i know comments help creators: I freakin like your channel, dude.

I have always preferred a blanco tequila. What a great video. Very interesting. Channel randomly showed up in my feed, stayed, watched, & subscribed.

Wow! I consider myself a serious tequila enthusiast and Clayton did a superb job! (... albeit, I was saddened to read the update comment of the closing of his tequila bar due to the pandemic)

Man, I'm really glad that I came across this video. It was extremely enlightening and fun to watch. Definitely subscribing to your channel, keep up the good work. Cheers from Istanbul, Turkey!

Excellent video. Thank you.

SUPER informative. Thanks, and cheers!

Going to Mexico in a week and this is the exact video I was looking for, really great stuff!

Tip for when your bottles get low that an og taught me was to use parafilm ..works great to not let air into your bottle.

Jeff, I'm getting more appreciated everytime I watch your well-made videos. I feel like I should pay to watch these honest and amazing videos - Ahmad

I’m about to buy a bottle of Casa Dragones Joven and sip on it. I’m excited man.

Costco tequila is actually pretty solid for the price. 100% agave añejo. A nice sipper.

Great video and great insights from Clayton. I have a new appreciation for Blanco. Before I would have considered it to be a lesser product because it’s not aged; I like that it’s “the true expression of the tequila and distiller”. As a whiskey and scotch drinker, the parallels are very interesting. In whiskey, the “white dog” is the un-aged product; one might sample some out of curiosity, but no one drinks white dog. We all wait 3-20 years for the whiskey to be perfected. Blanco comes from the still as a ready to drink product (as do gin, vodka). Also the appreciation for the agave plant, it takes many years to cultivate, unlike grain that is churned out by the ton every year. Much appreciated!

As a newer bourbon drinker, the information that was provided wants me to take a look at other spirits. I also enjoy the extra “military” type questions you asked. Very well done

Great video! Salute!

Clayton is a fantastic teacher! Thank you for this. I learned a lot.

Any tequila beginner should start with this video. I’ve been a tequila lover for over a decade and I keep coming back to this. Great vid

I loved this video. Thanks so much.

Catching up on the episodes :-). Great one, keep up the great work!

I agree with the other comments, the videos on this channel are very well produced and highly informative. This one got me more excited about trying new tequila. Just subscribed and shared channel with friends!

Just read Clayton's Tequila book. Top tier stuff.

I see my three favorite tequilas, Arette, G4, and Fortaleza. Hands down one of the best videos about tequila on KZfaq. Looking forward to visiting Tequila one day.

that was really informative video i have ever seen about tequila... thanks a lot for that 1✌✌🍾

Very informative interview and entertaining video!

Great job, thanks for your efforts in getting this information packed video to us. Clayton, you did a great job as well! BZ!

Very interesting n very informative! I've neva tasted tequila but love th beauty of th plant, the glass bottle designs, th process that goes into producing etc . .Thnks I love education n learning about new stuff 👍🏾 P.s cute smile from Clayton at th end too wraps everything up nicely 💃🏿 😉

Great Show specially this Clíp on tequila so informative

Very informative video. Thank you!

This Tequila series is awesome.I never knew much about it before now. Thanks.

Great video, tequila newbie, love to learn the important things when picking out my next bottle

first time to watch one of your videos.. I like this kind of information! awesome!!

Excellent video. I’ve been to Tequila town, it’s a magical place.

I watched commercials on KZfaq for the first time to make sure you get paid... great job.

A great video, with lots of awesome info for beginners. I would have really liked to have seen Clayton touch on production methods and which ones result in a better quality product- as well as benefit the industry and sustainability, in general- but I understand time constraints and not wanting to make it too deep. Perhaps you could focus on those in a future episode? Salud!

Great video very informative THANK YOU 🙏🏻

Until I watched this show I had no idea about this or how to read a bottle. Thank you - great information!

great video!! i learned so much!!

Why didn’t I find this channel earlier.. I always wanted to know more about alcoholic drinks and couldn’t find good resources. Now, I guess I have found the perfect resource..

This video is great! I’ve been a member of the sip tequila club for awhile out of Florida, my love of tequila has grown every year since I’ve joined.

Tequila is my Fav ...

How did I only come across this channel now? LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Outstanding, clear and simple explanation to help anyone caught up in the tequila maze!!!

"Store it in a cool, dark place," says the guy whose tequila wall literally has lights shining up through each bottle... Nevertheless, a great video. Super helpful. Gracias y salud!

Thanks for inviting him bro ...he explained it so well ...muchas gracias 🌺 ...amor de la India.☘️

“Once you get half way you should finish the bottle “. Yup that about sums up my Tequila experiences. He doesn’t mention waking up naked on the floor though.

Excellent and well made video. Very sad to see that Clayton's business has had to shut down!

You, sir, need your own Netflix show. Fantastic work!

Tequila and Brandy are hands down my favorite liquors. I like to drink them straight on the rocks or with a bit of water and juice. I find cherry juice pairs really well with brandy and lime with tequila. I wouldn't quite call it a Margarita; it's like 70% Tequila, 20% water and 10% lime juice, with a lime twist on top. I like it this way because you can still really taste the quality of the tequila, it doesn't have that much sugar in it and the sourness + cold goes a long way in making the drink as smoo9th as possible. I'm still fairly new to Tequilas; the only 100% Agave's I've tasted before were Patron and 1800, both of which were pretty bland compared to the Tequila I'm drinking now. It's called Olmeca Altos, I got it mostly for the fancy bottle, but it turned out to be a really great tequila. Just smelling it once you open the bottle you get a really strong scent of agave, which was more of a subtle hint with other tequilas I've tried. I would definitely recommend it to people who haven't tried it yet. The next two I want to try are Heradura and Cabo Wabo. I definitely prefer the blancos, as it brings out the agave flavor more prominently.

Excellent presentation! Thank you!!!

Good info. After watching it I ran to my bar to look at what I purchased in Mexico. Some of the bottles don’t have the NOM numbers on them so they may be questionable. I did get a good buy on a bottle of Seleccion Suprema that I’ve been nursing for a while and it’s good to know about the 50% rule. Tequila party!

Finally opened my Rey Sol bottle and WOW. It is absolutely delicious. I liked it much more than Don Julio Real. Dos Armadillos Reposado is absolutely delicious and an excellent value for its price too. I actually purchased a bottle of Herradura 150 Aniversario (aged for 100 months!) but I haven’t opened it. I love this channel bro, keep it up. I keep revisiting these videos. Tequila is my spirit of choice.

Thank you for a splendid education on a subject that had hitherto evaded my awareness. I particularly liked the clear explanation of the different ages of the spirit. I am also impressed with you have been in the military and now exploring such an interesting subject. Take care and keep safe and thank you. Paul (UK)

Love what you are doing here with this project. Instantly subscribed. Keep at it, love the content.

Tequila is to be appreciated 👍

I am from Mexico, and most of this was new to me, cheers

Ok, I am hooked on agave products - and not only for the growers benefit of new found respect! I will share this with my liquor store friendly crew. thanks to Ana, Rich, Fiend, Interstellar and the many excellent comments and educational highlights!

What i like about tequila is that the "cheapest" version is always my favorite. Blanco all the way

Incredible video thank you everyone who had a hand in this video!

Wow this very insightful i did not expect tequila to be broken down like this I'm not big on liquor but I knew there was something special about tequilas!

Amazing video!!

Fantastic overview, thank you! My only question/confusion is the recommendation to finish a low bottle in a short time span. I've had open tequilas for well over a year and they didn't seem to lose any complexity or strength.

Thanks for this video, I'd love to visit that Tequila bar. Now I know how to pronounce Anejo! 😁
