The Tequila Trail
For many it is an unpleasant taste of a party gone wrong, the devil juice offered around by consenting maniacs just prior to doing some damage, or collapsing in a heap, but let us be the first to say Tequila has come a long way baby!
Forget worms in a bottle, forget mixto awfulness and definitely forget salt and lime, the tequila we have the privilege of drinking now is truly one of the world’s great spirits! Subtle and elegant or powerful and bold the different expressions from blanco through resposado to anejo have finesse and style…just like the Liquorists!!
We will take you around the region of Jalisco, an area perfect for growing Agave centred around the town of Tequila, showing you the influence of terroir, yes, just like wine, on the final spirit, and sip and savour some of the very, very best Tequilas on the market today. 5 tequilas, 5 cocktails, food matches and a Mexican feast at the end make this evening’s entertainment great value for money as well as great fun.
For those who have been on a trail before you know the score, 5 rums, 5 bars, food, transport, masterclasses and the best brands you can lay your hands on. For those that have yet to come…Now is your chance
We will be visiting a host of great bars all over the city, starting at Kosmonaut and finishing at the Liquorists HQ, our secret cocktail lovers hangout for food, drinks and music. We for one cannot wait! The rest will remain a secret…for the moment anyway!
Part tour guide part spirits experts The Liquorists specialise in unique spirit and cocktail showcases. We love Tequila and this is a great way to try some of the best on the market, in some of the great bars this city has to offer – no queuing to get in, no waiting at the bar for your drink, no colossal bar tab!
From just £35 for £125 worth of food and drink, it’s great value.
