How to shop the tequila aisle at Spec's
- Look for "100% de agave" on the label. Anything without it is a mixto, which only needs 51% agave sugar.
- Find the NOM number. It identifies the distillery that made the tequila. Don Londrés is NOM 1518, in Atotonilco El Alto, Jalisco.
- Pick the category for the job. Blanco for margaritas and Palomas, reposado for sipping, añejo for whiskey drinkers.
- Use the price as a filter, not a verdict. Well made 100% agave blancos usually run $30 to $60. Paying more often buys packaging or a famous name.
- Read the shopper reviews on the product page and check which nearby store has it in stock before you drive.
