Default Adding to my collection

I'm headed to Ramirez this weekend, looking to add to my collection. Was wondering if people saw anything blatant missing from what I already have.

Current Collection:
Blanco
4 Copas Blanco
AsomBroso Blanco
Casa Noble Crystal
Don Fulano Fuerte
Don Valente Blanco

Reposado
4 Copas Reposado
AsomBroso La Rosa 3mo
Casa Noble Reposado
Clase Azul Reposado
Don Valente Reposado
Penca Azul Reposado

Anejo
4 Copas Anejo
Casa Noble Anejo
Chinaco Negro Extra
Don Julio 1942
El Conde Azul Anejo

This is a 100% drinkable collection. I'm looking for interesting, high-quality tequilas to enjoy drinking.

If I don't go in there with some direction, I'm afraid I'll just stand around for hours and the wife will get bored.

Get some Los Abuelos in there, and after the competition I would recommend Don Abraham Blanco, Tres Mujeres Anejo, 5150 Repo, and some 1921 Reserva.

Once Maestro Tequilero and El Gran Jublieo hit the US, you'll have to try those as well. Have fun at Ramirez!

Got to get an Orgullo that stuff is amazing and cheap. I cannot remember if they have it there but if they dont you should tell them to get it.

If you go for the Los Abuelos (which I definitely agree with) they no longer have any Blanco there but do have it in the Fortaleza brand. Another one of my favorite blancos I see you do not have is El Tesoro. If you want a ETWL, I saw one in LA and will gladly give you the info if you want.

I totally agree. Los Abuelos may be marketed under the Forteleza label - I tried it at a tasting two weeks ago in San Diego and they said they had some problems in the US with the Los Abuelos label.

I definitely recommend the Don Abraham Blanco as well.

Yes definately get your hands on the Fortaleza Blanco, I think you tried it at the SOM? The more you drink that stuff the (me anyways) the more I like it. Its my Tequila crack.

I like 1921 Blanco alot too. I would have to agree with ET Platnium as well.

Mmmmmmm Orgullo!!!!!!! I'm down to my last bottle, I love that stuff. Unfortunately, I can only get it online, but as long as I order 4 bottles from Hitime it comes out to only $47 per bottle.

I don't think you would be disappointed with the whole line of 1921.

I've always wondered about the 1921 Crema....Cream, Coffee and Tequila sounds gross How is it anyways, I can get it but never really paid much attention to it.
