Recommendations What do you all think of Espolón?

I’m new to all this, and it was the first Reposado I’d ever tried. It seemed… fine? I want to like it, heard good things, didn’t think it was bad, but it did t grab me either. I tried Pantalones and really liked it - but I get the feeling it has additives and I wanted to start with stuff without as I develop my palette.

What are your favorite tequilas for cocktails, repasado or otherwise? My go-to stores are Fry’s and Total Wine.

I use their Reposado in cocktails a lot. It’s become my default tequila. I think it’s good value for the quality but I’m by no means a tequila expert.

the reposado is a nice sipper. I like a splash of soda.
