Mexican Whisky Tasting
Mexican Whisky Tasting in CDMX
Mexico is the birthplace of corn, with heirloom varieties that are thousands of years old. And now, craft producers are turning these ancient kernels into whisky that's packed with flavor.
Join me for a laid-back tasting of 4 standout Mexican whiskies. We'll sip and unpack:
- How this whisky safeguards heirloom corn from extinction
- What sets it apart from Scotch or American heavyweights
- How to find great brands locally and abroad
- And what corn tell us about Mexico's history and culture
This tasting is great for folks who want more than a buzz!
What's included?
- A guided experience lasting about two hours
- Tastings of 4 different whiskies that are made from heirloom corn
- A crash course on the brands available here and abroad so you can find your favorites again in the future
- And a greater appreciation for these amazing spirits!
