Tequila, Mezcal, & Beyond *In-Person*

Agave spirits are classified as a distillate produced by the cooking, crushing, fermenting, and distilling of the heart (piña) of the agave plant, a succulent native to Mexico. Much like the grape varietals used in wine production, agave spirits can be classified by the species of plant, and where they are produced. From barrel aged tequilas to small batch mezcals, we'll taste an array of agave spirits as we learn the complex and rich history of one of the world's most popular spirits, dating back to the ancient Aztec culture.
