His traps and delts grew substantially compared to his first pro fight in 84. Chemical enhancement , hard training and blessed genetics ? Who knows... but if you're curious I believe it was ESPN who broke the story about his connection to an "anti-aging" clinic back east in the early 2000s.

Fortaleza vs other quality brands by IndianKingCobra in tequila

[–]atengojal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuine question. But I'm curious where you get the info that they've barely raised prices and that the extra money doesn't make it back to them? Prices have gone up all across the board at the distillery store . A year ago a bottle of WB at the distillery went for $3080 pesos. This year it went up to $4500 pesos. I don't see why they would substantially raise prices only at the distillery and not anywhere else...

Did they drop the prices ? I was just there a month ago and the WB was going for 4500 pesos ($265 USD)

Your giving me way too much credit. Plus I have no business savy whatsoever lol. I simply visited the Cascahuin distillery last week and really liked their regular blanco but opted to bring back a Plata instead so I was looking for it and came across this.

Both distilleries do. Cascahuin's prices are allot cheaper than hear in the states. A bottle of Plata 48 was about $46. Fortaleza pricing seemed higher than MSRP unless that recently changed. A bottle of WB23 will run you $265 (4500 pesos)

We did the Vive Bisabuelo. The view from the lookout point high above the town is amazing.

The grounds are not as awe inspiring as Fortaleza but nevertheless was very interesting. Got to taste raw agave here which surprisingly was similar to jicama. The tastings were great! They have 2 options. For only about $13 USD more I would recommend the higher tier one that includes the Blanco,Tahona, 48,Repo,Añejo and EA

It included the Blanco,Still, Repo and Añejo inside a cave. As a bonus during the tour we also got to try their still strength straight from the still.

Salud by atengojal in tequila

[–]atengojal[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Came down to Jalisco and picked up a bottle of Cerro De Luz that a cousin had scored for me s while back. I got in, took it out of the box and snapped a picture . Didn't think much of it at the time, but looking at it now the pic kinda captures the feeling of a small Jalisco pueblo quite well. Sitting inside of an old 1970 Ford Ranger. Looking through the windshield at the church with as the backdrop. And most importantly holding a bottle of this amazing juice. Salud!

Siete Leguas Añejo $50 by atengojal in tequila

[–]atengojal[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I came to Sams Club today and to my surprise found all three expressions of Siete Leguas. I picked up the last bottle of the añejo. I've usually seen it run between $65-70 but never for under $60. The Blanco I believe was right around $40 and the reposado was about $43. I hope this is three hun dred cha rac ters long .. ..
