Yah, I have bought some really wonderful crafted and unique tequillas in Mexico and in California - both Aguave and Mescal. My personal taste in tequilla and alcohol in general is full bodied, full flavored and smooth. According to one test I had, I am a super taster - just means I have more taste buds. Al I know is I have a good pallette that despite being a smoker I can often taste subleties and different distinct flavors as well as the blend. But a sharp liquor (Encompassing all varieties for this sentence) basically kills that for me. All I can feel then is pain :-). Maybe that is why I have such a problem with oil based peppers and no problem tossing a big hunk of Wasabi in my mouth.
