I thought I'd post this here since rec.food.drink doesn't seem to have a
lot of traffic at the moment.

I just returned from a week-long trip to Hermosillo, Mexico. While
there, I picked up a couple bottles of tequila, Don Julio and Herradura.
Both are aged or anejo. That I've got straight. However, the bottle of
Don Julio also is listed as Reposado. I noticed this on a couple other
brands. What does this mean? I'm trying to find a magazine article I
read that gave a lot of info on tequila's and what meant what, but as of
now I haven't been able to find it. One thing I remember from the
article was that only certain types could carry certain classifications
on the label, but I'm not sure if that only meant that to be called
tequila, it had to have 51% agave.

TIA.

Give me a rare porterhouse, a pint of Guinness
and a MonteCristo #2 and I'll be a happy camper.

Anejo tequila is aged for at least 1 year, reposado (rested) tequila is
aged for at least two months.

Back in 1998, when Guinness was considered good beer.

You never know, with the acronyms around here. Could have fooled me.

My answer to Tequila is NO!

I gave up drinking ethanol!

Only cannabis for me!

You can use ethanol to wash your leaf and make it pristine. NASA
used pure ethanol for years to wash certain rocket engine parts.

Then you can grab your glabrous genitals, whack off, and crow about
it. A nice touch is sending a copy of the video to your nursing
agency. They will put it in your folder to entice future clients to
request your services.

Remember, they make money when *YOU* make money.

A good extra backup is to post it yourself on craigslist.

Probably translates to 'repose', rests/aged.
