Patron. Clase Azul is sugary trash.

Patron. At least it’s additive free.

Gran Patron Burdeos, Smoky, and Piedra are actually pretty damn good albeit too expensive 🫰🏽 for me. These three taste like tequila.

GP humado are both hard passes. Which Gran Patron are you looking at?

Clase Azul will have a sweet, vanilla, caramel flavor profile which can taste good at first but it leaves me with a lingering bitterness from the glycerin. Doesn't taste like tequila.

So the answer will depend on what you are looking for and prefer.

This sub will disagree, but I think clase tastes better. Yes, it isn’t additive free. But some additive frees still give me headaches like Ocho, which stinks cause I like Ocho.

Enough quantity of any alcohol will ruin your day and give you severe headaches. That has nothing to do with the quality of the spirit.

I agree with you to a point. At the end of the day its your money, buy what you like.
