Tequila is the market-moving spirit of 2021. Development in ultra-premium tequila rivals seltzer for becoming the largest growth area for spirits. Everyday tequila remains popular, while craft expressions are being distilled under clear direction from the Mexican government to increase quality, depth of flavor, and personality.
How you like to drink tequila often determines the type of spirit you wish to purchase. There are three main types of tequila; silver (or Blanco tequila), Reposado (rested), and Anejo (aged).
These core types have expanded in recent times to include Cristalino (a clear, charcoal filtered aged tequila) and Joven (a mix between Reposado and Blanco). There’s also Mixto tequila, the cheap tequila you’ll find on supermarket shelves and in frozen batches that can leave you in a sorry state the next day.
Tequila Blanco is the most common expression and the type of bottle bartenders recommend for classic cocktail making, with a clearly agave heavy taste. The other types add other flavor elements during the distillation process to create individual taste and nuance that are perfect for sipping tequila.
You can find smooth-tasting tequila bottles within all tequila types (cheap Mixto tequila notwithstanding) and across a range of prices. The collection of bottles below are fine examples of some of the market’s smoothest tequilas to try in 2021, whether you want to make a margarita, fit out a tequila cocktail party, or enjoy a simple tequila shot.
