In celebration of Mexican Independence, master tequila distillers, blenders, authors and tequila aficionados will gather in San Diego to enjoy this ancient distiller’s art in dozens of its various forms. Attendees will enjoy samplings of blancos, anejos, reposados, mezcals, sotols, liqueurs and more.
An impressive gathering of over 100 styles are expected to participate in the main event, each offering their hand-crafted agave spirits.
Those thirsting for knowledge as well as agave spirits can participate in the educational seminars that will explore all facets of bringing this spirit to market. The event is pleased to announce the CRT (Tequila Regulatory Council) as one of this year’s seminar presenters.
General admission guests will enjoy two hours of ‘neat’ agave tasting of all participating brands and hosted hors d’oeuvres. VIP guests will enjoy several hours of tasting, have the opportunity to meet master distillers and other industry experts, receive two extra anejo tasting vouchers, admittance to an on-site seminar, and a goody bag.
