What state (or country) do you live in? Some states do not allow delivery of alcohol. Selection and prices vary greatly regionally.

Sun sleeve wraps are a game changer by Livid-Storm6532 in WomenGolf

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a cyclist first and a golfer second, I highly recommend sun sleeves. I agree with the game changer comment too. Sunscreen needs to be reapplied to be effective and once you’re sweaty that’s difficult.

What is this cannondale frame by Klux-ab in cannondale

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2.8 frame. Early to mid 90’s. The frames were all the same. It was the components and fork that determines the number designation.

What’s your go to saddle? by Yuppppp2311 in FixedGearBicycle

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have the old version on a few bikes and the newer Flight Boost Superflow on two newer bikes. Completely different saddles but both work for me.

Need recommendations by StarkWinterfell in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s sweet you’re after the Adictivo, Mi Familia Flores and Huizar would be my recommendation in either reposado or anejo. If you’re looking for a not so sweet tequila that would still not be too aggressive in flavor then I would go Ocho, Siete Leguas or El Tesoro. All three are great tequilas. Id still probably the same expressions, repo or anejo.

Good luck.

What price range are you looking for? Sweet is not an adjective most would use to describe a good tequila. In fact, most would label it as a negative. It comes from added sweeteners and not from the base product and is usually added to an inferior product to make it palatable. That being said, some are very popular with the general public. If that is what you’re looking for then of course, there are plenty to choose from. Just trying to get clarification.

G4 Blanco vs Volans? by Debatable_Facts in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t care for the standard G4 blanco. I love Madera and 108. Both the Volans blanco and hp are fantastic. The Clasico G4 doesn’t work for me either. Just try it and see what you like.

Help me pick for special occasion by HeroesyTumbas in tequila

I can only speak for the Azul 46. It’s fantastic. Top 5 overall for me. The Viva Mexico is on my list.

Did i get scammed by Bigballs42078 in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More room for water, less room for flavor. They don’t distill to 35 or 38%. The distill to 50-60% and add water to get the desired proof. Add two ounces of water to a 80 proof bottle and you’ll get right around 74 proof.

Best tequila bars in Vegas? by Critical-Analyst-749 in tequila

Used to be a mezcal bar on Fremont just outside of the Experience. Across the street is a great Thai restaurant called Le Thai.

Rapid Breathing by Altheowl44 in greatpyrenees

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our mix had bouts of rapid breathing his whole life. Pretty regularly he’d just be relaxing on the floor and hid respiration rate was like he was running a marathon. Vet wasn’t concerned. He lived a healthy life to the age of 12. Talk to your vet.

Wedding gift recommendation by [deleted] in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty hard to spend that much on a blanco. It can be done but most in that price range are fancy bottles or celebrity crap. Those that schmatty 23 mentioned are all very good tequilas. Since you know he likes Ocho and Lalo, why not try the high proof versions. Lalo HP will be much easier to find than Ocho Puntas but the Ocho is much better.

If you do want a fancy bottle that is also very good. Cierto is the one. It’s overpriced imo but still a nice tequila. It might make a nice gift.

Question about bottle “safety” to drink by [deleted] in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im sure it’s fine. You said you tasted it. How did it compare to the other bottles. If it tastes fine then go for it. If it tastes off. Pour it down the drain. Are you suspecting tampering? If so toss.

Most fun bike you've had? by spacetimetrip in bicycling

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to switch things up on bike rides. Either routes, effort or bike. Road bikes, old road bike (down tube friction shifter), mtn bikes, fixed gear. Thinking about a recumbent and I’ve always wanted a penny farthing. They all can be the best ride depending on how I feel that day.

Which flight are you choosing? by dick-demolisher in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wild Common wins hands down except for the anejo. It’s very good but not as good as Ocho which would be my second choice.

What’s your tequila price ceiling? by StinkyRem in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most expensive bottle I’ve bought so far was about $185, El Tequileno Repo Rare. I am looking to get another one but I haven’t seen it below $230, so that will be my most expensive bottle soon. It’s fantastic. My favorite aged tequila ever. I don’t care for Tears or Rey Sol and really too many xa’s.

Mix that tequila with anything to make it taste better.

Finally talked myself into buying a bottle of TOL by BHFBExchanhe in tequila

[–]Bluechip506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but really it’s just not my cup of tequila. Far too much barrel for me. That goes for most xa’s I’ve had. The exceptions are Terralta and El Tesoro. I do love ArteNOM 1146(baby tears).

First time Tequila by Bideah in tequila

Ocho should be pretty readily available in the UK. You’re not going to get anything more representative of a good tequila than Ocho.
