Is Flavored Tequila Real Tequila? Tequila Cream Explained
About this episode
Flavored tequila, tequila cream, and tequila-based liqueurs are everywhere — but are they real tequila? In this video, I break down what flavored tequila is, how it’s classified, and how it compares to traditional 100% agave tequila. Most people don’t understand the difference between: • 100% agave tequila • Tequila flavored products • Tequila cream liqueurs • Additives vs flavoring If you’ve ever wondered whether coconut tequila, chocolate tequila cream, or other flavored expressions are legitimate tequila — this video will clear it up. We’ll cover: – Mexican regulations – CRT classification – What happens after distillation – The difference between flavored tequila and additive-free tequila – Why transparency matters Whether you’re a tequila beginner or a seasoned agave nerd, this is one conversation the industry needs to have. Drop your thoughts in the comments: Do you drink flavored tequila — or are you strictly agave only?
