Discover the delicious world of agave spirits from one of the "Best Bars in America" (according to several national magazines) by the 2010 "Bartender of the Year". You'll get five glasses of premium tequilas and mezcals and a guided tour of them that will open your eyes to the realities (vs myths, legends, lies and previous bad experiences) of this exploding category of spirits.
We begin with learning exactly how to taste and evaluate spirits, then we delve into what each glass holds. I have been to many distilleries around Mexico and I look forward to sharing my experience and knowledge with you.
· 6x .75oz pours of premium tequilas and mezcals.
· $10 gift certificate to go visit Elixir, my bar, and taste your way through some more of my deep collection, some of it very rare.
