Discover Top Tequilas and Margaritas in Nagoya

The Team • May 21, 2025

If you've ever wondered what makes tequila one of the world's most exciting spirits, you're not alone - and you're in the right place! Whether you're new to tequila or looking to upgrade your next night out, Shooters Sports Bar & Grill is your go-to spot to explore, taste, and enjoy some of the best tequila in Nagoya.

What Is Tequila, and why is everyone talking about it?

Tequila is a distilled spirit made from the blue agave plant, native to Mexico. Unlike vodka or whiskey, tequila has a rich heritage and a flavor profile that's earthy, spicy, and sometimes sweet - depending on how long it's aged.


At Shooters, we're here to make tequila fun, approachable, and most importantly - delicious. Whether you're a tequila rookie or ready to level up your palate, we've got the perfect pour for you.

Types of Tequila - Know What You're Drinking

When you walk into a bar and see a wall of bottles, it helps to know what you're ordering. Here are the three main types of tequila:


  • Blanco (Silver) - Unaged, bright, and perfect for shots or cocktails.
  • Reposado - Aged 2-12 months in oak barrels. Smoother with notes of vanilla, oak, and spice.
  • Añejo - Aged 1-3 years for a rich, complex flavor perfect for sipping.

We proudly offer one of the best tequila assortments in Nagoya, including premium and popular favorites. Come try:
