All About Tequila

Quabbin Plaza Liquors carries 90 tequila bottles.

Tequila is a Mexican spirit distilled from the fermented juice of the blue agave plant, primarily in the state of Jalisco. Its flavor profile is incredibly diverse, ranging from bright, herbaceous, and peppery notes in unaged styles to rich, warm flavors of vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak in aged varieties.

When choosing a bottle, look for "100% Agave" on the label, which guarantees no cheap sugar fillers were used. Unaged Blanco tequilas are vibrant and perfect for crisp margaritas or sipping with fresh lime. Reposado, aged in oak for a few months, offers a smooth balance of wood and agave, while Añejo, aged for over a year, is best enjoyed neat like a fine whiskey.
