 Most expensive tequilas in the world (surprising prices)

The world's most expensive tequila went on sale Thursday night. A platinum bottle of tequila can be bought for a whopping 225,000 dollars in the Mexican capital.

In its purest form, tequila is an alcohol that is extracted from blue agave. It predominantly grows in an area called Tequila. Usually, tequila has a degree of alcohol of about 40%. But there is tequila that literally blows your mind. It contains about 60% alcohol. These facts may blow your mind, but you should also know that tequila is usually diluted with water to reduce the alcohol concentration slightly.

The tequila industry has evolved in such a way that there are hundreds of brands aimed at very specific consumers.

This drink made from blue agave has to go through a special aging process to achieve the quality that each brand establishes according to the taste of its consumers.

In addition to being white, rested, or aged, tequila requires an attractive presentation for the consumer; therefore, the bottle must distinguish and enhances the brand of each producer.

Some Mexican tribes, including the Chichimecas, Otomis, and Toltecs, have been drinking tequila for centuries. Despite its relatively modest popularity in earlier years, tequila has now reached the highest level of consumption. Today there are over 500 brands of tequila to choose from.

So what are the most expensive tequilas?

This list should help you make your choice.

1. "GRAN PATRON PLATINUM": $250.

"Gran Patron Platinum" is praised by critics and ordinary tequila drinkers. It is especially noted that this tequila is soft and oily in texture. This is compounded by the fact that if you taste the drink, you will clearly detect a slight citrus flavor.

Some believe that when these citrus fruits are grown, they are fertilized with volcanic ash, which is plentiful in the Mexican hills. You can get anyone to reveal their deepest secrets for $250.

2. "DON JULIO REAL: $350." 

"Don Julio Real" is a great gift for family and friends because it was one of the first premium tequila brands. The bottle shape with a high neck has become a symbol of premium tequila, and many other producers have begun to imitate it.

Produced in the heart of Guadalajara, this tequila became truly exclusive due to the outrageous price at which it could be purchased. However, after a while, the Cuervo family, who took over the production of this drink, shut down this attraction of unprecedented generosity, and now "Don Julio Real" is available for $350.

3. "CASA HERRADUA SELECCION SUPREMA" ($360).

Another well-known and respected tequila brand is "Casa Herradua Seleccion Suprema." It costs $360 and has a distinct amber color. This tequila is one of the best in the world, despite its slightly oily consistency.

4. "TRES-QUATRO-CINCINCO: $390".

The Fonseca family of Jalisco produces "Tres-Quatro-Cinco" tequila, which is made entirely from the blue agave plant. This is the fourth generation of the Fonseca family to make tequila, so you can rest assured that the Fonsecas are experts at growing agave and distilling tequila. The drink is made with a secret family recipe and a 3:4:3 ratio of 3, 4, and 5-year-old tequilas.

As a result, the numbers 3-4-5 appear in the drink's full name. This tequila in a crystal decanter looks great in any office. "Tres-Quatro-Cinco" is a limited edition drink because only 1000 bottles of this tequila were made. There are also unique bottles painted by Alonso Gonzalez Jr.

5. $400 for "REY SOL ANEJO".

The $400 "Rey Sol Anejo" tequila offers spicy vanilla and caramel flavors with a slight spicy touch, making it unique. It has been aged in oak barrels for 5 years and is full of subtle flavors.

The bottle's appearance is also given careful consideration. Its design, created by acclaimed artist Sergio Bustamante, has received international acclaim, particularly in Mexico.

6.Tequila Barrique Ponciano Porfidio. 

Its cost is 2000$ since it is an extravagant brand because this tequila aged for 10 years in French oak barrels is bottled in a bottle containing a hollow cactus and has the letters of the brand engraved in gold.

"7. CLASE AZUL EXTRA ANEJO: $1,700". 

"Clase Azul Extra Anejo," which has been aged for years in oak sherry casks, is a tequila that can be savored indefinitely. Its blood-red color will arouse in you a wild desire to dance with the devil himself, and you will return to the bottle repeatedly.

The bottle, by the way, is not simple either. The purest silver and platinum, as well as 24-carat gold, are used in its production. Because only 100 bottles of "Clase Azul Extra Anejo" are produced each year, the price is fully justified.

8. Tequila Ley 925 (Tequila Ley 925, $3,500,000)

In 2006, Tequila Ley 925 cost $225,000 simply to sell its white gold encrusted bottle, the most expensive one ever. Not only that but in 2010 Tequila Ley produced $3,500,000 worth of tequila in a bottle with 6,400 pure platinum stones, making it the most expensive alcoholic beverage of any drink in the world.
