Like Cazadores but gentler

I really like tequila. Specifically, I like the flavor profile of Cazadores Reposado. I like the notes of white pepper and pears, the little bit of oak that backs up a delicate fruitiness. I'd like it even better if this taste didn't come bound to a shiver-inducing alcohol bite or the stink of witch hazel upon pouring. What is my next tequila?

Best answer: I had a Corralejo Reposado tonight which was smooth and delicious. Worth a try.

Best answer: +1 Corralejo Reposado. If you have access to a chain drugstore like CVS, they often have screaming deals on it.

I really like the Espolon tequilas. I typically drink the Blanco, but, everything I've had of their's goes down pretty easy.

Best answer: I came here to recommend one, googled "tequila in tall blue bottle," and lo and behold, it's Corralejo Reposado. +3.

Best answer: That's so funny, my favorite tequila is Corralejo Reposado and I often drink Cazadores Reposado because it's similar.

Around Christmas (and especially after), look for bottles of Corralejo Reposado in gift boxes with shot or margarita glasses; they're not any more expensive than the bottle WITHOUT free glasses, and often cheaper, especially if you can find them on sale after the holiday.
