Tequila vs Bourbon… Which One Wins? (Quick Sip Test)

About this episode

In this episode, Brad tests the flavor interaction between tequila and bourbon using the 'Quick Sip' method.

Tequila vs bourbon—what happens when you combine them? In this video, I test the “Quick Sip” method inspired by Whiskey Tequila Fridays using Ensueño Añejo and Woodford Reserve. Tequila vs bourbon—what actually happens when you drink them together? In this video, I’m trying something a little different. Inspired by my friends over at Whiskey Tequila Fridays, I put their “Quick Sip” method to the test—pairing tequila and bourbon back-to-back to see how each one changes the flavor of the other. Tonight’s lineup: Ensueño Añejo Single Barrel (Tequila Collective Release) – Aged in Woodford Reserve barrels – Finished in Woodford Reserve Cherry Bitters barrels Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon We run the experiment BOTH ways: ➡️ Tequila → Bourbon ➡️ Bourbon → Tequila And the results? One direction completely changes the flavor profile. If you’re a tequila lover, whiskey drinker, or just curious about how spirits interact—this is something you need to try. Let me know in the comments: Would you try this at home?
