Some Kirkland tequila brands that claim to contain only alcohol distilled from the blue agave plant actually include other, lesser-quality alcohols, according to a suit filed Friday on behalf of 13 aggrieved tequila drinkers in Washington and eight other states.
Tests found that some of the Kirkland-brand tequilas were so adulterated they didn’t even qualify as tequila under Mexican law, according to the suit, which was filed in federal court in Seattle.

Excellente(e)!
Who’s the patron Saint of the climate?
LOL! Disregard post #22. Posted to the wrong thread. Stupid vodka.
For a little while, back in year 2022, several American supermarkets began removing all bottles French Dressing from their shelves, never to be sold. Why? The FDA revoked a Standard Of Identity definition for French Dressing, ending a rule that had been in place since 1950.
An industry group petitioned for the change, saying the former way was outdated.
Result; Current manufacturers are no longer legally required to follow the old rules on what qualifies as French Dressing. Many new varieties are now widely available for sale without the “crippling fear” of the merchant being sued for improper labeling.
Yay!
Dr. Evil is ready to help you!
Bourbon: Buffalo Trace at $24. Unbeaten.
Scotch? No idea!
I believe it. All I need to see is the label “Kirkland” on any product and I run the other way.
Blended Scotch? Yuuuch!
Roquefort cheese comes to mind. They have to be aged in the natural Combalou caves of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon France to be labeled Roquefort.
I love the stuff!
No telling how much cheap Tequila bars an restaurants are selling too.
“I didn’t say that you said that.”
Repackaged Dewars.
For Scotch, Craggenmore 12. Not too peety. Lovely.
Costco is a very PROGRESSIVE company.
Ok, never mind then. Glenfeddich would be asking too much.
Rum ain’t livin...Rum’s survivin...
I don’t want any-shelf tequila. I was permanently conditioned against the stuff about 50 years ago, by two bottles of Hood River Distillery’s cheapest. I was lucky to survive, though it certainly didn’t feel like it the next day.
To this day, the smell of tequila turns my stomach.

Gin for me. :)
