Agave spirits are the most unique spirits in the world. Try artisanal mezcal and tequila straight from Mexico at this special tasting with a Certified Mezcal Sommelier.
Sometimes grown for up to 20 years before harvest, agave spirits like mezcal and tequila allow you to taste the terroir of a place like no other spirit. They also come with a fascinating history as old as Mexico itself.
But there’s a lot of bad mezcals out there! (And they usually just taste like a mouth full of smoke. 🤮)
Join for me an agave tasting where you’ll not only taste amazing spirits, but learn about the history of the drink and what makes it so special.
