Tequila/Mezcal Tasting Event (Delta/Austin)

For our May Whiskey, turned "Agave" club event, we'll be joined by Travis Gale, Spirits Educator, from Maverick Beverage Co. 

Maverick Beverage is a liquor distributor who represents a variety of craft spirit producers.

Tequila and Mezcal are two of the faster growing spirits categories in the U.S. However, many of us have the image of doing tequila shots or "hearing" that mezcal is the super smokey cousin of tequila. Although, when you really dive into how craft tequila and mezcal producers are making their spirits and spend time teasing out the myriad of aromas and flavors, a whole new appreciation of tequila and mezcal will emerge.

We'll journey through six different brands, three tequila and three mezcal. Travis will teach us the production methods of both spirits, what agave plants are used, and guide us on a tasting journey. Even if you think you don't like tequila or mezcal, we've watched many folks become fans, and at the very least learn to appreciate these two spirits.

Doors open at 6:15pm. Jessie and Maddie (The Yarrow Taproom owners) will feature a Mexican-inspired dinner buffet that you can eat during the event (included in the ticket price)

They'll also create two to three signature cocktails that you can purchase, using the tequila and mezcal we'll be tasting. Their full drink menu will also be available (just not their food menu).

Tickets for this event are $32.

Gather a group of agave-spirit curious friends or even your whiskey loving friends and come join us for this unique, fun and educational event.
