Doc & Tequila Tasting: Agave: Spirit of a Nation

Taste the spirit of a nation at our latest doc and drinks pairing.

From the alluring red highlands of Jalisco to the rugged mountains of Oaxaca, generations of families in Mexico have dedicated their lives to the tending to the agave plant, creating two of the fastest-growing spirits in the world: tequila and its smoky cousin, mezcal. This new documentary takes you to the roots of this booming revolution to the heart of Mexico’s tequila-making heartland where hardworking jimadors (agave farmers) work to preserve their extraordinary tradition and bring us the drinks we all love.

5:00 PM - Tequila tasting
6:00 PM - Screening

The screening will be preceded by a tequila tasting curated by Tequila Tromba, a boutique distiller born out of the highlands of Mexico.
Tickets, including Tequila tasting: $26 (Members: $21)
