Default Reserva de la Familia 1995 2 bottles for sale

Good day,
In June of 1996 I Purchased 2 bottles of Reserva de la Familia (1995). I purchased them and have never gotten around to drinking them. one is sealed and I've never actually seen the bottle, the other bottle I took the paper off just to see the bottle. they both are in their boxes with everything. Anyway, does anyone have any info on what these go for, or any links?

Check ebay.

They have gone for as much as $800ish but recently its come down to $400ish, I think this is due to some reintroduction of previous years by Cuervo into the market.

Heck a 95 2.5L went for $800 just recently on ebay, it was one of the reissued box/bottles though.

Oh so thats a 96 bottle in a 95 box, that could make that one worth a little bit less. People will want to know that when you are selling it so you may need to take the tissue off the other one if you sell it on ebay.

AS I recall, in 1995 there weren't too many Reserva Bottles out there. I was in the Restaurant business, and we didn't receive our Reserva bottles until Mid-1996. One possible explanation for this is that the Tequila is from a 1995 barrel, just not bottled until 1996.
At any rate, I uncovered the other bottle, and it is a sequential match (Bottle 490 &491). I can't imagine that this would hurt it's value.

Hmm I would love to taste those but I'm really low on cash. I hope they go to a good home and I hope someone actually enjoys the tequila instead of putting the sealed bottles on a shelf to collect dust.
