The Best Tequila You’ve Never Heard Of…

Until now that is. Check out the mom and pop boutique distiller that we helped put on the map.

3 Amigos Tequila is a about as smooth and drinkable a tequila as you’re going to find. One sip of this and you’ll be like “Patron who?” No. Really. We ran across their company while searching for cool finds for our Garage Magazine Kick the Tires review section. They sent us a bottle, and after much ummmmm “taste testing” by our internal staff of experts, found it to be everything the critics say it is. One reviewer described it like this, “On the tip of the tongue, it begins buttery and turns to a minty agave. Body: A very, very balanced agave body. Finish: No alcohol burn at all, with a very spicy finish.” Or in the words of Red, our resident tequila slinger and connoisseur , “Dammit to hell, that’s good! I’m getting some for this weekend!” The brand gets rave reviews and has a laundry list of awards under its belt. They practice organic farming, so there is no pesticide residues affecting taste, so it’s good tasting and good for you.

After the magazine was in circulation a few weeks, we started getting bottles of tequila left on our doorstep. Scratch that…cases of tequila. Turns out the folks at 3 Amigos wanted to thank us for the review, because after the magazine came out, their sales almost doubled. So we’re happy we could play a part in getting these guys a little exposure. We were really impressed by the taste, quality, and their craftsmanship approach they take when creating their product. Check out the whole story on the 3 Amigos site to see how they do what they do so well. And hopefully they’ll get a few more folks trying the stuff, and we’ll keep getting our weekly allowance of that golden nectar.

    NICE!!!
    3Amigos is good..I love the Anejos. Out of all the tequilas, I like El Tesoro Anejo and 3Amigos Anejo. The aged tequila in oak barrels give that perfume like, silky taste where you sip with fresh tomato juice and sea salt. The tequila is so smooth, you sip it like a fine Cognac. Funny thing is..the reason why people shoot tequila is because they are drinking CHEAP tequila.

    LOCO y BARACCHO Amigos!

    Cheers!

    wow!!! This is the best tequila out there!! :) My friend recommended it to me and I bought a bottle and since then i have been a huge fan! I would recommend this to everyone. Patron is way over rated.

    Peace, Love, and Tequila (3 Amigos) :)

    Best tequila I’ve ever tasted and I’ve tasted ALOT !! Organic is good no hang overs ,I like an all natural product.

    I’ve never heard of it and I love tequila. You guys have to try Bandolero….apparently you can only get it at Vons grocery stores! But their silver is awesome and it only cost $8 bucks!

  6. LadyAzul

    The smooths Tequila your pallet will ever experience!!!!!, I personally love the Anejo, the Smoky caramel and alcohol content, all very well balanced, I have SIPPED 3 Amigos Tequila Anejo in a Riedel Tequila sniffer glass, I suggest you experience 3 Amigos in this fashion as well, it will be an unforgettable experience, the aromas of spices & barrel are incredible! Gonzalez Family thank you for making a Great Quality SIPPING Tequila. “It was about time”! Now this is what Tequila is all about!

  7. JenTheDame

    Better than Petron…joo say jefe? Hmmm will haf to try!!

  8. Leila Vasquez

    The blanco is my favorite !3 Amigos is the best blanco I’ve ever had.I’ve also had there margaita mix at the Tempe Az,New Years Eve block party ! I found myself returning several times that night to have more! You have to try it !!!

  9. Lizette Vasquez-Santamaria

    It is nice to find a tequila that doesn’t burn going down and the fact that is 1 of a handfull of ORGANIC Tequilas makes a difference in the product. This company is ahead of the game also introducing their own also ORGANIC Margarita Mix “Margarita Sensations.” I highly reccomend these two products and watchout for their upcoming lines of products derived from the agave plants they harvest. Barnone the best Tequila I’ve ever tatsed! I highly reccomend these products…Thank you Ernie Dominguez for introducng this product to me and my boss Stevie Wonder!!!

  10. El Tequilero

    3 Amigos a great Tequila! I highly recommend it to any of you tequila connosieurs, 3 Amigos Anejo great with a spice cigar! Felicidadez

  12. Phil Miller

    You are so right. It is the best Tequila we have ever had. Smooth! We ride Harley’s and our group is called the Tequila Riders…. so we know our Tequila! Three Amigo’s is truly the best! I can’t boast enough about it to our friends.

AND EVERYWHERE I EAT I REQUEST IT AND DEMAND IT. IVE TRIED ALL FOUR OF THEM AND JUST THE SMELL MAKES MY MOUTH WATER, ALL MY PARTY GUEST ENJOY 3AMIGOS TEQUILA FO SURE!!!!

    The Three Amigos Tequila is by far the smoothest, best testing tequila I have ever experienced. It has a delicious flavor and the after taste it leaves in your mouth is unlike any other tequila because it is crisp and light, not heavy like most other tequilas. It gives you an instant buzz which is surprising because most tequilas require quite a few shots before you start to feel its effect. It does not give you a hangover at all the next day. I have always been a fan of Patron, Silver or Gold, but now, I will only drink Three Amigos, not only for the above reasons, but also for the price!

  15. Johnnell Alva

    If you have not tried their Organic Kosher Tequilla you are missing out! It is the smoothest tasting tequilla I have ever had. Besides being Organic, the best part is that it has no alcohol burn. I highly recommend it to everyone who has tried other tequilla brands and thought eww, cause this made me change my mind on tequilla, and it will change yours too. Another thing is that it is not overpriced in comparison to other brands like Patron, 3Amigos is well within budget, allowing you to buy more. And trust me after tasting it and sharing it with friends you will need to make sure you have some on reserve at all times. Like me you will become a 3Amigos Tequilla drinker.

    I recently experienced 3 Amigos Tequila for the first time. It is by far the smoothest tasting tequila I have ever tasted. The after taste that it leaves in your mouth is delicious. It is crisp, light and very fresh tasting unlike other tequilas that are on the market. I was suprised that although it is very smooth and has no burning effect, it definitely gave me an immediate buzz – this usually doesn’t occur until I have had a least a few shots of other tequilas, even the higher end brands such as Patron. Also, I did not experience the slightest effects the next day which was great. Not that I am a lush or anything because I am not, but I do like to let my hair down once in a while! Before trying this new tequila, I would always invest in Patron Silver for my company events and family parties. It is expensive but I thought it was one of the best so I always spent the extra money to please my guests and to impress my clients. Now because I have found such an incredible tasting tequila which is also very reasonably priced, I am never buying another bottle of another tequila if I can find this one. I agree with the comment in the article “Patron who?”

    I started to love tequila since I’ve tasted 3 amigos. No hangovers! and tastes really good!

  18. Julie Perez

    I am not a tequila drinker, in fact I’m a vodka or a scotch gal. I will say when I tried 3 Amigos, I am coverted :) This tequila is very smooth, no mixers required. I can actually drink this straight and enjoy every last drop. Seriously amazing and from me, that’s saying A LOT! Bravo for 3 Amigos!!

  19. Leah Solorio-Fimbrez

    One tequilla, two tequilla, three tequilla MORE! Smooth and makes the best Margaritas. Otra Mas Por Favor! Continued Success 3 Amigos!!! ~Leah

  20. Belinda Quesada

    At my recent birthday party, someone brought a bottle of 3 Amigos Tequila, I was blown away at how smooth it went down. This is now my favorite tequila. Great taste and the birthday party was a super success thanks to 3 Amigos tequila. Bravo, great product. ###

  21. Esther Alva

  22. Jody

    3 Amigos really got it right. Great tasting tequila and a solid company to back it. Cheers!

  23. P.K.

    I have been a big fan of Paton Silver and Platinum for quite some time, but 3 Amigos is simply smooth from the first sip to the last drop….and no harsh ‘alcohol’ after taste. Definitely love it…I have finally broken off my relationship with the Jefe for good….there’s no going back now!! There is a new “Jefe” in town!

  24. terry

    It was great! Best tequila I’ve ever had!

  25. Jennifer

    This is absolutely the best Tequila out there. You will LOVE it!

  26. Richard Ochoa

    3 Amigos has captured the heart of many. Its overall quality and most of all smooth taste is the reason once you try it, it becomes your choice for all special occaisions. On a national level, it is recognized as a special liquor As the Official Tequila for the Fiesta Bowl and Lowrider Hall of Fame.

  27. Elaine

    I am not typically a tequila drinker but tried 3 Amigos to see what the fuss was about…it was fantastic! I would recommend it to everyone…even those who do not normally enjoy tequila.

  28. Arthur Tapia

    WOW!! What a surprise…quite honestly, I did not expect to be impressed.

    The agave is incredibly well- balanced, not overpowering, and it’s surprising smooth in the first taste. In a word — MELLOW. It has a rich and sophisticated taste that kept me asking ” Mmmm….Let me try that again”. So if you are looking for something different then you need to try this.

    And, I like the price.

  29. Joanna Alva

    I’m impressed… I’m not a drinker… I’ve never liked anything I’ve ever tasted ENOUGH to say “i’ll take another one.” I’ve been searching for “my” drink of choice for a LONG time, and I must say… “I’ve found it!” 3Amigos is IT, I am done searching! I’ve always been the one to try everyone elses suggestions…. “Try THIS try THAT”… now… I’M THE ONE TELLING THEM… “TRY 3AMIGOS!”… great taste great price… you just gotta love it!

    3 Amigos Tequila the best TEQUILA! the best Anejo my pallet has ever experienced! I highly recommend to everyone, and very affordable. Cheers!

  32. ASHLEY

    Tres Amigos is one of the BEST tasting Tequilas I’ve come across. No burning or harsh after taste of rubbing alcohol. It’s very smooth & GREAT tasting. & the fact that it is organic gives me more reason to drink it often. :)

    Muchos Gracias Tres Amigos!
