As for dos lunas I'll tell you why I think it's one of the best. It's 100% organic. They are currently applying for organic certification in mexico. this is a 5 year process and they are 3 years into it. you need to have your fields herbicide and pesticide free for 10 years. they use goats and cows to keep the weeds down.
another step they do that many do not is to remove the wax from the male plants. some people say this is what helps cause hang overs.
then when it comes to processing many places use calcium chloride to help speed up fermentation and keep down bacteria. that is something else dos lunas does not do.
many companies also add glycerin to help help numb your throat cuz their tequila is so harsh. another thing dos lunas does not.
as for aging dos lunas is aged in American white oak barrels (old jack daniels barrels)
when you drink it you will notice hints of leather and vanilla. very smooth. you can drink it on ice or straight up and its smooth like sipping whiskey.
i have given it to many people who say they hate tequila and they love it.

You just sold a bottle of Dos Lunas.
Milagro is also on my list. It's always mentioned in these tequila threads and I still haven't tried it.
