I like both, I guess it's like music, sometimes you want to hear some mellow music and sometimes you want to hear it loud and hard.

From what I've heard though, is that Lee's is the place to go to in Vegas. Go there with pen and paper and write down the prices and selections and we can help you make some good decisions. Also check with the people there and ask if they are offering any specials, sometimes nothing may be advertised but it doesn't hurt to ask, and you might get good deals on some close-outs. Good luck!!!

Yes, I am very familiar with Lee's, they have 12 outlets now. I've bought many varieties of beer in their stores when I tried to get into beers around 2005. Beer is not my thing! For the last 30 years or so, I have been mostly into Scotch, Bourbon & Vodka (in that order) and have bought many of them as well.

I will definitely follow your advice and make a list of what seems interesting, with prices. I'm pretty sure that I be trying all three styles over time, but I plan to start mostly with Blanco first and maybe one or two Reposado. I just ordered the 3 listed and one is a Reposado.

I do appreciate your help!

I know lack of funds can limit this but just save some more and order as much as you can in 1 order. It'll be cheaper in the long run. The great thing about shoppersvineyard, is that they pack their shipments very good, so there's very little chance of breakage, at least so far for me.

I will agree up to the point of ordering over 12 bottles. I was going to order 13 and my shipping jumped from 36.00 to 51.00....yikes, I removed a bottle


BTW....the Espolon Combo Pack is still available and a wonderful way to try a blanco, repo, and anejo of one lineup. I prefer the blanco and anejo...I didn't care much for the repo but "too each their own"
