Beyond the shadow of a doubt, the agave wave has begun to crest our midwestern shores with new styles and celebrity endorsements popping up nearly weekly. This saturation of brands has brought along a growing desire for traditional quality, artisanly made, additive-free tequilas. For this class Ray’s agave acolyte Scott Smits is teaming up with Spirit Specialist Jacob Leyba to reveal the complexities and nuance in this seemingly ever-expanding category. These two brilliant minds put their heads together to pair up two sets of Tequila to showcase a firsthand view of the differences terroir and production have on the spirit. Now is your opportunity to compare the differences between the regionality of highland vs lowland as well as the stylistic differences of copper pot still vs column still Tequila. All this will be wrapped up with a showcase of two separate agave cocktails that highlight the true versatility of this magical spirit. Don’t wait, seats are limited!
