[edit] Don Julio 1942 Anejo Review
[edit] Josh's thoughts
Sweet like butterscotch. Warming finish. Perfect bite. This is one of the very best I've had.
Only recently trumped by the Herradura Seleccion Suprema. Still the 1942 is a fantastic tequila and highly recommended!
Thanks, Ron for picking this one up!!! Once again: You da man!!!

Thanks to Ron I can no longer enjoy any other tequila without comparing it to this magnificent and unparalleled work. If you don't enjoy this one beyond what mere words can convey, you should switch to gin because you're a complete moron!
Hands down...the BEST. Case closed.
[edit] Ron's thoughts
This is the best tequila i've ever had without exception. However... it is not perfect and it is not 100% consistent. I'm now on my second bottle and while the tequila has a wonderfully sweet flavor with mild bite and almost orgasmic finish, you will sometimes get a bit more bite and a bit less sweet and a finish that's a gentle sigh than a "i must go change my shorts" event. But i was content that this was the best tequila i could afford (and the Real is just too outrageously priced and, from what i've heard, very similar, if not slightly inferior, to the 1942) but now i've heard from Josh that the Herradura Seleccion Suprema is the Tequila of the Gods and is MUCH better than the 1942. at $58/shot i'm in no hurry, but some day (hopefully this year) i will try the HSS and the DJReal and then hopefully i will be able to come back to and be content with my favorite sub-$100/bottle of tequila - the Don Julio 1942. :)
