yeh.... it does.

cause it tastes like sh!t.

Jose Cuervo does not constitute "good tequila" by any reckoning.
:thumbsup:

Jose Cuervo is the tequila equivalent of charcoal-filtered, plastic jug vodka.

edit: I can do 5-6 sipped, straight shots before I get a good buzz.

I love tequila. Not sure how many shots I can handle. (not as much of an alcoholic since I am out of college)

Depends on the brand of tequila. If it's Jose, not many. When I'm at home though and put one on, it's Cabo Wabo Anejo all the way. I can put down quite a bit of that over the course of a night, possibly an entire bottle - although I haven't done that as of yet.

over the course of a night? 15-20

I can drink tequila all day long but I don't drink enough to get drunk. Those days are long gone and a pleasant buzz is enough for me.

You're thinking of Montezuma. It actually comes in a plastic jug just like Skol or Barton vodka. Cuervo is at least tolerable.

I've never done this with tequila.. but judging from my drinking history I would guess 20. Who knows how many until I'm at the brink of alcohol poisoning, but definately 20 if I don't want to puke

I bought a 750ml bottle of Jose Cuervo back on May 5th and I still have about 60% of it left... after a couple shots I just get sleepy. :D

Jose Cuervo is not a bad brand of tequila but it is fairly cheap. I like that stuff with the worm in it best (Monte Alban) but it's kinda pricey.

I prefer beer or while over hard liquor. :beer:

Don't put down Montezuma... while it does go down a bit harsh, it's very clean for such a cheap liquor. Most liquor in that price range will have you flirting with a hangover if you drink enough of it to have fun, but I've never had a problem with Monty.

Patron and I .. what a sweet, short love we both share. That song; one tequila, two tequila, three and I'd hit the floor : )

I don't know how many I can "handle" because I hate Tequila, so I never drink it.

I don't really like taking shots anyway (give me a good beer), but if I do drink Hard Alcohol it is most likely Vodka.
