Whats the difference in tequila??

Question

I've noticed that there are two different types of tequila. clear or goldish brown i love tequila gold but hate the clear kind...what is this difference?? and is tequila really made with mescalin or is that just a rumor?

Answer 1

the gold tequila has a bit more of a kick to it. Its stronger and can be tasted more. If you have an acquired taste for tequila you drink this kind. If not I would recommend the silver or blanco. Its a bit smoother for someone who doesn't like the taste of tequila. It also tastes a but more salty.

Answer 2

its not made with mescalin... youre thinking of mescal... which is similar to tequila but different

Answer 3

the clear kind of tequila is called blanco and its packed right after it has been distilled which makes it strong. The gold  had added flavors and its used for sweet cocktails like margarita it is also a little bit less strong. Tequila is made out of  blue agave.

Answer 4

Unless it is mass market c**p (Cuervo) tequila with color has been oak aged in barrels.

Silver- clear color, no aging

Reposado- light amber, some oak aging

Anejo- medium to dark amber, long oak aging

Use silver for mixed cocktails.  Use the others for sipping straight.

There is no mescaline in Tequila.   It comes from the fermeneted core of the blue agave succulent plant grown in the state of Jalisco, MX.
