In addition, the aging process takes the more sharp edges out of the beverage. Tequila blanco , white tequila, has little or no aging at all. It is customary to add cane sugar to the aguamiel , or agave juices, before the fermentation process. This practice helps to keep costs down, but it is not really in line with the old, traditional ways that give a fine tequila its distinctive and exceptional taste. I hope all of the above may help you to choose the tequila you are looking for.
White tequilas are best for cocktails like Margaritas.
Tequila, being a distilled liquor similar to cognac or anisette, could be considered a digestive, to be drunk after meals. If you are lucky enough to have access to one of the magnificent Reservas described above, avoid the salt and lemon and enjoy the masterpiece in its grand solitude. And, above all, forget about fast foods and fast drinks and business while you dine. Savour your tequila in peace. Then attack your botanas and the rest of your meal in good company and humor, as civilized and well educated people do.
