My wife and I spent a little over a week in Cozumel then we went so see some friends for 2 days in Merida, Mexico.
No I do not have any pictures!!! My wife made me "Check it in" my cell phone and made d@mn sure I didn't have any access to a computer and very little TV time. It was a..."Be Together" Christmas South of the Border.
The food was great, beach was great, Merida was very nice...neat architecture, food, museum and EXCELLENT Mezcal...some were so sweet it tasted like smokey sugar water-even though they were 80-100 proof. I had a Mezcal with a few marijuana leaves/infused...this stuff was extremely sweet and NO...there wasn't an extra buzz. Remember-ANY Tequila or Mezcal with any insect in it is a gimmick for the tourist or college boys. If you can't sit and sip with friends it isn't quality.
My buddy in Merida had some QUALITY Tequila we sipped!!!
Gran Parton Piedra
Gran Patron Estate Release
Herradura Seleccion Suprema
Clase Azul
Don Julio 1942
I did purchase 2 tequila impossible or very difficult to find here in the USA and they're sipping quality!! Then an EXCELLENT Bourbon that's impossible to find in Oklahoma any more... Was shopping in a liquor store in all places..Progresso, Mexico....I see 25 bottles of Blantons....go back later that day and there was only 3 bottles left!!!
Sipping Tequila with oranges and cinnamon or chile spices.
1. Corralejo 99,000 Horas/Anejo....100% Agave
2. Aha Toro...100% Blue Agave ..Reposado
Now...the one I can't wait to try!!!! It's a D@MN shame I have to go roughly 1,302 miles to find this Bourbon!!!!!
3. Blantons:
Cheers and Happy New Year....Feliz Ano Nuevo!!!
