The best Patron is nowhere near even the Blanco Don Julio. Don Julio Anejo is my favorite. Don Julio REAL once a yearDon Julio is by far my favourite. Never tried Patron but I've been meaning to.
OMG i hope you are kidding. that shit is gasoline
not pretty, but effective
I dunno why everyone hates on patron I've tried alot of tequila and its really smooth. It almost doesn't even taste like tequila. I'm sure there are other great ones out there.
I keep Jose around for dinners with more than 6-7 people so I don't break the bank on margaritas..and if your "taking shots" with lime and salt it might as well just be Jose because the lime and salt negate any taste whatsover anyway. So theres no use wasting expensive tequila on that crap.
Cabo-wabo is good, but totally overpriced. Its not a very smooth tequila at all.
1800 is a few steps above jose but not many. El jimiador is a step or two above 1800.
And frankly While Don Julio is good I can NOT discern much a difference between it and patron.
From best to worst...
Don Julio = Patron
El Jimador
1800 ~ Cabo Wabo
Jose
I'm really suprised by the cabo wabo love...because I've had it multiple times and can honestly say its not worth the price.
I don't think I've drank anything more expensive than a 50$ bottle.. But i'm not sure i could ever justify trying the true top of the line tequilas.
tres generaciones or whatever is flavorful and smooth
that would be my go to tequila if i could afford it on a regular basis
CaboWabo is excellent. I suggest you picking up a bottle of that rather than patron. Definitely way tastier if you're going to spend the money for high-end tequila.
I also enjoy tequila.
I used to drink that. Very good tequila.
Now that's what I'm talking about. I have a bottle of this, a bottle of Don Julio anejo, a Cazadores reposado, a reposado in a white/blue porcelain container that came straight from Mexico and three others that I can think of off the top of my head.I keep a bottle of this in the cabinet at all times.

The owner of a little sushi spot here makes his own shoju soaked in octopus tentacles. A couple beers and after dinner one shot of that gets me ripped.
If you go into Mexico or South America then there is nothing better than the local tequila.
