the State of Jalisco where this potent potable has been made for
centuries and continues to be manufactured. Much like a fine
single-malt scotch, there are Tequilas of surpassing quality that
are to be similarly sipped and savored. And the flavors are
every bit as subtle and complex. Even their bottles are often lovely
works of art. Delight yourself with a sampling of these very
best Tequilas, 8 different types, and a detailed tour of the
preparation of the most famous drink in Mexico. As long as you are
able to moderate your imbibing of these tasty tequilas, you will
come back an expert on the subject. Also, you will have plenty
of Mexican snacks during the testing. Within a few yards from the
garden party happens to be one of the loveliest beaches in

stroll along this beach and soak up its beauty.
