Mama Iguana's. They have a fantastic selection, with standard tequila bar pricing - aka, pricey. But they have many, many brands no store in the area has.

The food is "eh" and the service is usually pretty bad, so go just for the Tequila and eat at the many much better restaurants in town.

The Tequila list on their website is WAY out of date. They have much more than whats listed, the prices are also out of date.

My favorite Mexican eatery/tequileria in New England. Mole sauce is excellent, and the bartender seemed generally enthusiastic when we started talking the language of tequila. He claimed the bar stocks every bottle that a massachusetts liquor buyer can access. I'm not sure how truthful that statement was but they definitely have a robust selection.

Highly recommended.

There is one male bartender there that is very into tequila and has a good knowledge base. The other bartenders.. not so much.

As far as the tequila selection goes, maybe. But I have seen Table and Vine in West Springfield carry some that I have yet to see in Mama Iguana's. Though they could just be a little slow.

I'll find out soon, T&V just got 3 new lines of tequila in : El Capo , La Certeza, El Conde Azul
So I'll have to see if Mama Iguana's has them now too.

Their selection is impressive and better than any other supposed tequila bar Ive been to, and that includes Pink Taco in Vegas (though they did have a Casa Noble machine mmmm).

As a follow-up, Mama Iguana's had the aforemention tequilas. Overall rating of those 3 lines .. eh
But as far as buying tequila in the Springfield, MA area, Table and Vine in West Springfield is far and a way the best in the area, actually the best Ive seen in Mass, Connecticut and New Hampshire.
The only one Ive seen beat it was Lee's in Las Vegas.
