The handcrafted quality of top-shelf Tequila can be as intricate a blend as that of fine wine, both with aromatic bouquets and unique flavor characteristics.

Host a sophisticated Tequila Tasting Cocktail Party for Cinco de Mayo where you sip premium spirits and savor appetizers with a Mexican-Nuevo flair.

Add to the ambiance of this sophisticated soiree with a menu of contemporary Latin flavors. Offer a bar with traditional Tequila cocktail mixers, such as Margarita mix, lime wedges, and fresh citrus juices, for all to enjoy throughout the evening.

Conduct your Tequila Tasting similar to a wine tasting with these items set up on a table:

3 types of 100% agave Tequila: Blanco, Reposado, and Anejo

Glasses for each type of Tequila that will showcase it's qualities.

Pitchers of water and a discard container, so guests can rinse their glasses and then pour the water into the container, or use it as a spittoon.

Tasting notes for your Tequila and a description of the types of Tequila displayed on note cards to help guests detect the aromatic nuances and flavor characteristics with each sip.
