Tequila
Like rum, tequila has grown up in the past couple of decades. The lick, sip and suck brigade have been replaced by a more discerning drinker, one the market has met with some seriously good aged tequilas. Made from the rare agave plant, the good ones slip on down like a single malt, and can often have prices to match. Discard your teen tequila experiences and see what's been happening in Mexico, hombre. Enjoy as a shot with lemon and salt, or in cocktails like a Margarita or a Tequila Sunrise.
