Skip the shot glass. A tulip-shaped or snifter glass lets the aromas open up (the narrow opening concentrates aromas) - because good tequila deserves more than a quick toss back.

Hold your glass up to the light. Blanco will be crystal clear, while Reposado and Añejo may have golden or amber hues. Each tells a story of aging and craftsmanship.

Gently swirl the tequila and bring the glass to your nose. Inhale slowly to detect notes of citrus, vanilla, oak, or spice - every aroma reveals a layer of complexity.

Take a small sip and let it rest on your tongue. Notice how the flavor evolves - from bright and peppery to smooth and woody. Every variety has its own rhythm.

Exhale gently through your nose as you swallow. A quality tequila leaves a warm, lingering finish - like golden hour, bottled.

Not vibing with the slow sip? No shame - sometimes you just gotta embrace the shot life. 😉
