What To Expect
Beyond tequila, an entire universe of flavors and traditions awaits discovery—each distilled spirit telling a story of time, terroir, and craftsmanship.
But how often do we truly experience these spirits beyond just taking a shot? This is not just a tasting—it’s a sensory and cultural journey into the essence of Mexico’s liquid heritage.
If you’ve ever wondered what makes mezcal different from tequila, why Mexican spirits are so diverse, or how tradition and nature shape every bottle, then this is an experience you won’t want to miss.
Guided by a Mexican spirits expert, you’ll embark on a tasting designed to showcase the soul of agave and beyond, selecting six carefully curated spirits that represent the depth and variety of Mexico’s distilling tradition.
Each sip is accompanied by storytelling, tasting techniques, and a carefully selected dish designed to enhance the experience. You’ll not only learn about the history, production, and denominations of origin, but also how terroir, time, and the artistry of master distillers shape the unique profile of each spirit.
