G4 tequila in Westford: blanco, reposado and more

G4 tequila is on our shelves in Westford, and the G4 brand page shows which bottles are in stock today. We carry four: Blanco, Reposado, De Madera Blanco and 108 Proof Blanco. Below is how they differ and how to choose one.

Which G4 tequilas does CBC Liquors carry?

We carry four G4 bottles at 142 Littleton Rd in Westford. They are G4 Blanco Tequila, G4 Reposado, G4 De Madera Blanco Tequila and G4 108 Proof Blanco Tequila.

Three of the four are blancos, so the range is mostly about unaged tequila. The Reposado is the one to pick if you want a rested style.

Stock moves, so the brand page is the quickest way to see what is on the shelf right now. If you would rather ask a person, call the store or come in during opening hours and we will point you to the right bottle.

Should you choose the blanco or the reposado?

Blanco tequila is bottled young, either straight after distillation or after a very short rest. It tends to taste of the agave itself: bright, peppery, a little herbal and clean. That is why it is the usual choice for margaritas, palomas and anything where you want the tequila to stay clear and sharp.

Reposado means rested. By general definition it spends at least two months in wood before bottling, which softens the edges and adds a rounder, gentler character. It works well for sipping and for cocktails where you want a bit more body.

If you are new to the brand, the plain Blanco and the Reposado are the easiest pair to compare side by side. You can browse the wider blanco tequila and reposado tequila shelves if you want to see how G4 sits next to other bottles in the same style.

What does 108 proof mean on a bottle of tequila?

Proof is twice the alcohol by volume, so 108 proof is 54 percent ABV. Most tequila sits around 40 percent, which is 80 proof. A bottle at 108 is noticeably stronger, and you will taste and feel that in the glass.

Tequila bottled at a higher strength is often prized for a fuller, more concentrated flavour, because less water has been added before bottling. G4 108 Proof Blanco Tequila is the bottle to look at if that appeals to you.

Treat it with respect. Pour small measures, sip slowly, and add ice or a mixer if you want to open it up. It is not a bottle to rush.

What does "de madera" mean?

"De madera" is Spanish for "of wood" or "made of wood". On a tequila label it points to wood in the story of how the bottle was made.

For the specifics of how this particular bottle is made and what to expect from it, the product page is the place to look: G4 De Madera Blanco Tequila.

How do you drink G4 tequila?

Start with how you plan to use it. A blanco is the natural fit for a margarita, a paloma or a simple tequila and soda. The clean agave flavour carries through citrus and sparkling mixers without getting lost.

A reposado is a good choice served neat in a small glass, or over a single large ice cube. It also makes a gentler margarita if you find a blanco too sharp.

If you are building drinks at home, the mixers aisle covers the other half of the glass, and our wider tequila selection is there if you want to try a few styles before settling on a favourite. Keep servings measured and plan to have food and water alongside.

How should you store an open bottle of tequila?

Tequila does not improve in the bottle once it is open, so the aim is simply to keep it as it was. Stand the bottle upright, because the spirit can wear on a cork over time, and keep the cap or stopper tight.

A cupboard away from sunlight and heat is ideal. You do not need to refrigerate it, though some people chill a blanco for margaritas.

Over many months an open bottle with a lot of air in it can lose some of its aroma. If you are down to the last inch, it is a good moment to finish it with friends rather than let it sit for a year.
