Tequila Trade Agreement

What is the Tequila Trade Agreement? In 2003 Mexico issues a proposal that would prevent the bulk import of tequila into the United States for bottling purposes. The companies in the US were upset by this because they were saying the Mexico just wanted to create jobs in their country while Mexico said they want to guarantee quality of the product coming into our country. Finally, in January of 2006, the agreement was passed. The agreement allows the continuing of bulk imports of tequila into the US but now there is a "tequila bottlers registry" that monitors the process which helps ensure the process is done in a way as to not lose quality.

Milagro Reposado

I am so thankful for this brand of tequila. Milagro has done a great job and puts out a very smooth, flavorful tequila for an outstanding price. This is what I have come to call my "table tequila". For just a few dollars more than Sauza Hornitos and $20 less than Patron or Don Julio, this stuff has the most flavor and smoothness for the buck. 95% of the time I have a bottle of this in the cabinet and I usually drink it on the rocks. Pick up a bottle if you have not tried it and if you are into Patron or another $50 brand of tequila, this is definitely worth a look. Enjoy
