Question:

What is the difference between white tequila and gold tequila?

Which is better?


Answers:

Anything Labeled Gold Tequila is white tequila (which is it's natural color) with coloring or flavoring added.

Aging tequila is broken down as follows:

Blanco (white, silver, etc) can be stored up to two months before bottling.

Gold tequila is white tequila with coloring and /or flavoring.

Reposado (rested) tequila is two months to one year in large vats or oak barrels.

Anejo tequila is aged one year or more in barrels of 350 liters each or smaller.

Anejo tequila does not take long aging real well.

About four or five years is it for tequila.

For the best tequila ,you will want to look for anything that lists as 100% Blue agave.. Petron is currnelty the most popular tequila for this, but way expensive. You can find plenty of 100% Blue Agave tequila's that are les expensive. but it is a very smooth tequila.
