| 6/21/26 | ![]() I Thought This Tequila & Red Bull Combo Would Be Awful... I Was Wrong | I Thought This Tequila & Red Bull Combo Would Be Awful... I Was Wrong Can Coconut Berry Red Bull and Reposado Tequila actually work together? In this episode of my Red Bull & Tequila series, I mix Pedro Furtivo Reposado with Coconut Berry Red Bull to see if this unexpected combination creates a cocktail worth drinking.

| 6/2/26 | ![]() This Tiny Bug Is Destroying Tequila Fields (And Most People Don’t Know It) | What if a single insect could destroy an agave plant that took 6 to 8 years to grow? In this episode of Tasting Tequila with Brad, we’re diving into one of the biggest threats facing agave farmers today: the Agave Snout Weevil (Scyphophorus acupunctatus). This tiny beetle has the potential to devastate entire agave fields by attacking plants from the inside out, introducing bacteria and rot that can kill mature agaves before they’re ever harvested for tequila. We’ll explore: ✅ What the Agave Snout Weevil is ✅ How it attacks and kills agave plants ✅ Why infestations are so dangerous for tequila production ✅ How farmers monitor and control outbreaks ✅ The importance of sustainable farming practices ✅ Why healthy agave fields are critical to the future of tequila Most tequila lovers focus on what’s happening inside the bottle, but every great tequila begins in the field. Understanding the challenges agave farmers face helps us appreciate the incredible work that goes into producing the spirits we love.

| 6/1/26 | ![]() Did Volcán de Mi Tierra FIX Their Tequila? Blind Test vs an Older Batch | Volcán de Mi Tierra sent me their newest batch and believed it was showing significantly better than previous releases. Instead of taking their word for it, I tracked down an older batch, poured both blind, and put them head-to-head. No labels. No marketing. No bias. Just tequila in the glass. Did Volcán de Mi Tierra actually improve their tequila? Is the newest batch worthy of a higher score on Tequila Matchmaker? Or was the older batch still the better pour? Watch as I compare both batches blind and reveal which one I preferred before finding out which bottle was which. Have you noticed a difference between Volcán de Mi Tierra batches?

| 5/31/26 | ![]() This Distillery Can Make Tequila Every Way… So Why Did They Choose THIS? | Casa Loy Blanco 49 | Can a distillery with every modern production option available still choose tradition? Today I’m reviewing Casa Loy Piedra y Agave Blanco 49, a high-proof tequila produced at NOM 1633 in the Southern Highlands of Jalisco. What makes this tequila so interesting is that the distillery has access to multiple production methods, yet for this release they chose a traditional approach focused on flavor and character. This tequila is made using stone brick ovens, tahona extraction, spontaneous open-air fermentation with fibers, deep well water, and double distillation in copper pot stills before being bottled at a bold 49% ABV (98 proof). I also had the opportunity to meet Luis Loy in Guadalajara during my 2025 trip to Mexico. We spent time tasting tequila, discussing the project, and talking about the vision behind Casa Loy. After seeing the passion behind the brand, I was excited to finally sit down and review this bottle. In this review we’ll cover: ✅ Aroma and tasting notes ✅ Traditional production methods ✅ High-proof tequila character ✅ Casa Loy’s philosophy ✅ Whether Piedra y Agave Blanco 49 is worth adding to your collection If you enjoy additive-free tequila, traditional tequila production, tahona-made tequila, high-proof blancos, and deep dives into how tequila is actually made, you’re in the right place.

| 5/30/26 | ![]() Most Tequila Fans Have Never Heard Of This | Most tequila fans have never heard of Charanda, but they may have already tasted its influence. In this video, I review Uruapan Charanda Blanco, a protected Denomination of Origin spirit from Michoacán, Mexico, produced by the Pacheco family since 1907. While Charanda isn’t an agave spirit, it shares many of the same values tequila enthusiasts appreciate: tradition, terroir, family legacy, and authentic production methods. Made from locally grown sugarcane cultivated in volcanic soils, Uruapan Charanda Blanco combines fresh-pressed sugarcane juice distilled in wood-fired copper pot stills with molasses distilled in French column stills. The result is a complex spirit with earthy, grassy, fruity, and briny characteristics that remind many enthusiasts of French rhum agricole. We’ll discuss: ✅ What Charanda is ✅ The Denomination of Origin of Charanda ✅ How Uruapan Charanda is made ✅ Why volcanic soil matters ✅ How it compares to rum and tequila ✅ The connection to Fortaleza Winter Blend ✅ Tasting notes and final thoughts If you enjoy additive-free tequila, mezcal, terroir-driven spirits, and traditional production methods, this is a category worth exploring.

| 5/29/26 | ![]() Can a NEW Distillery Beat These Reposados Blind? | Can a brand-new tequila distillery actually compete with established reposado brands in a completely blind tasting? In this episode of Tasting Tequila with Brad, I put four reposados head-to-head in a true blind tequila tasting featuring: Pedro Furtivo Reposado Primo Reposado Carabuena Reposado Blue Star Spirits Reposado No labels. No hype. No price bias. Just aroma, flavor, mouthfeel, finish, and overall balance. One of the biggest surprises in this blind repo battle was Primo Tequila coming from a newer distillery and going up against some seriously strong competition. This is why blind tequila tastings matter — the bottle disappears and the tequila has to speak for itself. If you love additive-free tequila, reposado tequila reviews, blind tastings, tequila education, or agave spirits content, this one is for you.

| 5/28/26 | ![]() I Knew This Tequila Was Different Immediately | The second I nosed this tequila… I knew it was different. The new 2026 Lágrimas del Valle “La Mesa del Charco” Plata might honestly be one of the most exciting blanco tequila releases of the year. This is the FIRST single estate release fully owned and farmed by the Rosales family of Cascahuín (NOM 1123), and you can immediately taste and smell the difference. Using traditional brick ovens, a blend of tahona and roller mill extraction, and mixed fermentation with stainless steel and wood tanks with fibers, this tequila delivers incredible cooked agave, floral notes, minerality, citrus, pepper, and a subtle eucalyptus character that absolutely jumps out of the glass. In this review, I break down: Aroma and tasting notes Traditional production methods Why this release matters The story behind La Mesa del Charco How it compares to previous Lágrimas del Valle releases Special thanks to Brandon Cummings from Altamar Brands for the interview and insight into this incredible project.
