818 Tequila
Kaitlyn FLevel 3 20 Reviews
I drink tequila regularly and have tried my fair share of brands. So I was excited to taste 818 when it first launched. I purchased the Blanco, which I used to make my usual cocktail: 2oz tequila, .75 triple sec, 1/2 fresh lime and a dash of agave. I figured it would give a fair comparison to what I normally drink. Unfortunately, the vanilla-like aftertaste that lingers after taking a sip of your cocktail is far too overwhelming for me. Despite trying another concoction -- this time, adding jalapeno to spice it up -- I could still not get past the vanilla taste in the tequila. For the price and the hype, I was let down and would not buy again. In fact, I still have the original bottle I purchased months ago because I never want to use it for drinks!
