Tequila, the national spirit of Mexico, is in the midst of a renaissance. This artisanal spirit is moving beyond its reputation as a party drink

associated with lost memories and lingering hangovers.  Learn the

difference between adulterated tequilas and 100% blue agave tequilas and

enjoy sipping them like a fine Scotch or Cognac.

Join us on May 6th from 1-3pm for a journey to the beautiful yet enigmatic blue agave landscape in the highlands, lowlands, and valleys of the tequila regions in the

Mexican states of Jalisco, Nayarit, Guanajuato, Tamaulipas, & Michoacán.

In so doing, you will connect with the culture and history of both ancient

and modern Mexico.

This session will provide a base of knowledge with a delicious and educational food pairing featuring a selection of artisan-crafted mezcals from Oaxaca – Mexico's most

culturally rich and biologically diverse state – and beyond. You’ll learn

about the history, culture, and production processes surrounding mezcal,

plus the botany, lifecycle, & agriculture surrounding the agaves used for

mezcal. Plus you’ll taste a flight of five 100% agave mezcals!
