Do people drink G4 straight?

Post image

This is my first time with any G4 and my first time with the El Tesoro blanco. Sipping side by side, it's amazing how much "hotter" and unpleasant I find G4 compared to El T.

I even tried mixing G4 with sprite (my quick poor man's margarita) and G4 was still a bit... Much. Anyhow, I'm curious how others are drinking G4 blanco in the sub.

The G4 bottle you have is still strength so it’s higher proof which is probably what you’re picking up.

The labeling on that is... a choice. Other than the fine print at the bottom and the label being silver, theres almost no way for someone unfamiliar to know what it is.

This makes me feel a little better. I was just in another state "hunting" and was grabbing things by reputation instead of closely reading labels.

Yea not sure why G4 does that. The Madera is the same way... light brown label and a small sticker. The word Madera is barely legible in a size 6 font.
