I'm dubious about this
because you say tequila tastes sweet

it's vile stuff only good for making cocktails taste nice and sour

I may have drunk a whole bottle of it when I was younger utilising jif lemon in a lemon shaped container and some Saxo table salt...

I was not well.

I passed out on the floor of the bathroom and came to to the sound of my parents banging on the door.

The other story I'm posting this week
Involves me drinking around a litre of tequila, several scotches and a brandy with fish and chips for lunch.

Still love tequila though although I think the whole salt/lemon thing spoils the taste.

cheap tequila
You can get good & bad tequila. Bad tequila tastes like petrol. Good tequila can be sweet & smooth. Bad tequila is what they serve in pubs in the UK.

I always keep away from the salt & lemon - and it amuses me that people look at me like i'm a lunatic for doing it without. If you don't like it, don't drink it!

doesn't surprise me
people look at me like I'm mad when i say I'd rather have a nice, freezing cold glass of neat vodka than some minging whisky

Now that I like
Vodka is so nice when it's come straight from a frosted bottle in the freezer. Shame you can't get it like that in pubs and bars.

You're right
Pub Tequila is not good. The salt and lemon produce a very strange sensation though - at first it's horrible, then you lick the salt and it becomes worse, then somehow the lemon makes it good...

Too much work for a shot though.
