Has anyone heard of jalisco tequila?

Question

is it any good?

Answer 1

Well OZ is correct in his answer and you may just have heard about a tequila that was FROM Jalisco.  

Linda, is correct in much of her answer, though it sounds like a cut and paste.  However, she blew it in her last sentence about worms.  By law Tequila CANNOT contain a "worm" (really a larvae).  That is only found in Mezcal (also distilled from agave), and even then mostly in cheap gimicky ones.

Anyway, I digress.

You might be talking about Oro de Jalisco tequila.  I have provided a link so you can get more info.  I have not tried their tequilas, but it is 100% agave, so that's a good start, and it has an attractive bottle.

Answer 2

Never heard of it.

Answer 3

Tequila is a Mexican liquor distilled from the fermented juices obtained from the hearts of blue agave plants grown in the Tequila Region. The liquor gets its name from the town of Tequila located in the state of Jalisco where production started more than 200 years ago.

The blue agave (agave azul tequilana weber) has long bluish green spiny leaves with sharp points and a large heart (called piña or pineapple) from which the juices are extracted and then distilled twice. One liter of distilled tequila requires between 6 and 8 kilos of agave pulp. Tequila is not distilled from pulque nor is it produced from any cactus.

Tequila is famous around the world for its unique taste and bouquet and it is also the great mixer used in Margaritas that have become one of the most popular cocktails ever.

this exotic liquor has a taste all of its own including that of the worm inside the bottle.
