Fruit Forward Tequilas

Fruit Forward Tequila List

These tequilas I find to have a stronger fruit flavor profile.

You’ll tend to find more of a tropical fruit type flavor to these brands with a lighter tent in their añejo expressions for several of them.

I’ll also be adding tequila brands who use former wine barrels to this category as well.
