Also open to suggestions to other types of liquor, was thinking about trying Xtabentun.

Stuff you can't get in the US: Alborada(reposado), Tapatio(blanco), Tres Tonos(all), Volcan de mi Tierra(all), Azcona(blanco). Or, look for expensive bottles you can get discounted at the Duty Free, which is better if you have to change planes in D.F.

I paid US$18 for a fifth (no liters available). Recommended before my trip to Playa del Carmen by a colleague who lives in Mexico City.
