Sorry Kendall, but I don't love it. I'm a bit of a tequila snob and the flavor doesn't justify the price point well enough for me. I like the branding, but it just didn't go it for me.

Not my favorite tequila, but it's a good price for the quality
The silver is honestly really smooth and I generally choose it over most other 100% agave tequilas, as embarrassing as that might be. However, the respado felt awful. Perhaps an acquired taste, but I personally could rarely get myself to stomach a shot of it, despite tequila always being my go-to. I've only ever drank both straight, so I can't speak to it tasting better when mixed, but my roommate enjoyed the reposado in the form of a tequila sunrise.
Really smooth and delicious. I was pleasantly surprised - thought it would be overhyped by kendal jenner tbh
Really smooth, but a little over hyped in my opinion
Boring packaging, nothing special
More flavor
Honestly wasn’t expecting this to be as smooth as it was, but it’s definitely still overrated. The packaging is obviously nice and minimalist. It’s celebrity brand recognition increases its cache, but I’m not sure I’d put out on my bar cart.
Not being owned by a Kardashian/Jenner
The marketing team deserves a round of applause because at first, I didn't want to purchase but they really created the feeling of FOMO so I bought a bottle online and was looking forward to testing it out for myself. I have to say, I am not an alcohol snob but I know what tastes good. My sister and I took shots straight (which I rarely do, but wanted to see how smooth it was) and it is smooth. After that, I made a deliciously sweet sugar-free margarita using MiraBurst, a shot of 818, and some lime juice. It was great. I probably will repurchase at some point if I come across it in person. Also, very aesthetically pleasing packaging.
This tequila is wonderful! Especially the Reposado. It is one of the best tequila's I've had, perfect for cocktails or on the rocks, and bottle looks amazing!
