Asombroso

Over the weekend I stopped at my local BevMo to pick up some Wild Turkey. I always spend way to much time perusing the rows of liquor. While in the Tequila section I noticed they got some Asombroso in stock. I have heard a lot of good things about this company so I figured I would pick some up. Well I noticed the price on the Anejo $170.00. Now I don't usually balk at the prices on good liquor but I have never had this one before. While standing there staring at the bottle (behind locked doors of course) one of the sales people walked up to me and asked if I needed anything? Well I confided my dilemma, lo and behold they had an answer for me they just got some 50ml bottles in stock at $24.99 I jumped at the chance. I took my teeny weenie bottle of expensive tequila home and fired up my grill. After grilling up a Ribeye and some peppers I sat down to enjoy my meal with the Asombroso. The flavors were remarkable smooth like no other tequila I have tried and none of the oily aftertaste you get from some brands. After trying this petite bottle it was all I could do not to run out and buy the big one. Well I reined in my enthusiasm and decided to wait a week or two til I have a little more disposable income. I just hope that they still have it when I can talk my self into buying it. Maybe by the time of the Socal lan rolls around I might bring this with me. Something to ponder. http://www.asombrosotequila.com/

Might I be able to try some of that fine liquor at the Chicago Lan. I was brought up on cheap booze, so I want to see how the other half live!

Best Tequila bar none in Don Julio. Ask any Mexican citizen and they will all concur. Other expensive Tequilas just charge you for publicity and the fancy bottle.
