I saw all the reviews praising this stuff so i bought 2 bottles expecting a good agave spirit (tequila). You can't detect the tequila flavor when sipped neat because some demented free spirit decided that cloying vanilla flavoring would be a good idea for a great tequila...nope. It overshadows the tequila flavor. However, when in a margarita, the tequila flavor makes a solid appearance and the vanilla can't be detected. So please, when drinking this...make margaritas if you think vanilla should play no part in a tequila flavored spirit.
