TLA Tastes Of Tequila
In this section, I want to categories the main flavor profiles of tequila.
I find that every single tequila lover has their own lane that they like to stay within when it comes to which tequilas they love to enjoy on a daily/weekly/monthly basis.
Some people love sweeter expressions of tequila, while others tequila lovers like myself enjoy a more well balanced tequila that tend to favor an agave forward flavor profile.
We all have different flavors that fit our individual pallets.
This is where I hope to help you find your favorite taste profile along with help you find amazing bottles to add to your bar for whichever expression preference you’re looking for.
The current TLA flavor categories consist of the following.
TLA Taste Of Tequila Categories
As you go through your journey to find the right tequila for you, keep in mind each one of these flavor categories.
As you’re finding the ones you like the most, think about which main flavors of each you love and want to enjoy on a daily basis.
From there, you’ll know exactly which category to explore for additional tequilas to add to your bar from there! Enjoy!
