You Should Try This Really Good Tequila

Author Ransom Garcia
Tequila Corrido offers quality over quantity. Read more about this luxury liquor.

If you know me, you know I’m a huge fan of a really good tequila. I gave up drinking beer near the end of 2022. I was just so tired of how bloated beer made me feel. Not to mention, all the weight it helped me gain over the years. Does that mean I stopped drinking? No… I just made the swap to vodka and tequila. Funny enough, just cutting the beer out of my diet helped me lose a lot of weight.

Tequila: Drink Of Choice

Tequila is pretty much my go-to adult spirit these days.  If you see me at Gilley’s on a Monday night, there’s a good chance I’ve got a tequila soda in my hand. And if you ever see my bar at my house, you’ll notice that it’s filled with a bunch of my favorite bottles…

Well, I think I’ll be adding a new bottle to my collection! Or three. I had a surprise guest waiting for me in my studio when I showed up to work today. His name is Lemay (pronounced Luh-My) and he’s with a company called Tequila Corrido. Lemay, like me, is of Spanish decent. But also like me, Lemay is passionate about good tequila.

He’s been with the company for a few years and gave me the complete rundown about what makes Tequila Corrido different than most of its competition. Most notably, how Tequila Corrido is made without any additives.

I’m not surprised that many of the bigger companies add things to their products. We live in a world that is more and more consumed with chasing numbers, so it’s kinda refreshing when you learn about a company who prioritizes quality over quantity.

They were all good tequila, but the reposado was Ransom's favorite.

Good Tequila Found In Nevada

Because Tequila Corrido doesn’t rush the product, you can imagine they aren’t sold in as many places as the bigger companies. However, Nevada is lucky enough to be one of the states where you can easily find their spirts on the shelves of places like Lee’s and Total Wine.

Take a listen to our conversation, below, to learn more about Tequila Corrido.

    Qua Spa at Caesars Palace Las Vegas is one of many luxury day spas on the strip where you can purchase a pass for a relaxing visit, massage or facial treatment. This spa was beautiful and large but did not offer co-ed space and seemed lacking on customer service in general. Far from a bad experience, this was fine if its convenient and you’re a frequent spa guest. If you plan to have one luxury spa experience in Vegas, there are better options. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #quaspa #caesarspalace #vegasspa #luxuryspa #spaexperience #vegasexperience #luxurytravel #vegaslocal #vegasstrip #thingstodoinvegas
