This past Friday, I had the absolute pleasure of representing @almadeljaguar at the 2024 @nashvilletequilafestival! It was an incredible event with great energy, and everyone was clearly having a blast. Here’s a peek at some of the reactions from those who tasted ALMA DEL JAGUAR—people were loving it! If you’re in the Nashville area, I highly recommend marking your calendar for next year’s festival. You won’t want to miss it!

Wanted to take a moment to express my sincere thanks to the middle TN retailers @elixirspirits @coolspringswine and @thebottleshopatmcewen that made @thetequiladies @tequilacabal single barrel pick available to your customers. As tequila educators, my Tequiladies cohost @tequilaencyclopedia and I truly appreciate the care and attention that goes into selecting your Tequilas.
Your commitment to providing rare and exceptional spirits makes all the difference to those of us who seek out special selections. This particular high proof single barrel tequila is a testament to your dedication to quality, and we are thrilled to let Tennesseans know where to find this very limited edition Tequila Reposado. Cheers! 🥂

Had to do some work today. I love the traditional hands on aspect of well made tequilas. Today we drove out to the @tequilacampoazuloficial agave fields and watched a Jimador harvest a fully mature piña from an agave plant with a very sharp tool called a coa. Then we helped shave the leaves off the piña. Fun fact. One piña produces on average about 8-9 bottles of tequila. And the piñas are all harvested by hand not by a machine. And the Jimador also loads each one into a huge truck. They weigh 80-180 lbs! And they take 5-8 years to fully mature. #themoreyouknow #lajimaexperience #tequila #agaveplant #jaliscomexico #handsonlearning

I say “drink what you love but know what’s it’s in your glass”. Knowing the origin of what is in your glass is sometimes overlooked.
Tequila, a beloved Mexican spirit, has its roots in the 16th century, when Spanish settlers first distilled agave (Pulque/Agave wine) to create what would become one of the world’s most iconic beverages. From its origins in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, to its global recognition today, this drink carries centuries of tradition in every sip!

Finally sat down and poured @almadeljaguar NOCTURNA Tequila Blanco Highproof 101. It’s just as delicious as when I sampled it at the distillery back in April! NOM 1414, Master distiller Sergio Cruz. Have you tried it?
There are some big differences between the production methods in the original Blanco and this high proof. This is definitely one to try!

It’s SO hot in Tennessee! Time for a refreshing cocktail. Here’s my Southern Cilantro Paloma.
Handful fresh cilantro
Juice of 1/2 a Ruby red grapefruit
1 oz agave Simple Syrup ( I used @tresagaves)
2 oz Reposado Tequila ( I used @drinkvivamexico )
Fill a 16 ounce canning jar halfway with ice and add all ingredients. Put a lid on it and shake well. Remove lid and stick a straw in it. Enjoy! #summertime #tennessee #paloma #cilantro #tequila #reposado #babyitshotoutside
