It’s no wonder San Miguel del Allende was named this year’s best city in the world by the readers of Travel + Leisure.
National Tequila Day: The agave fields that provide tequila maker Casa Dragones with its harvest are located on an estate at 1,200 meters above sea level in the Trans-Mexican Volcanic belt in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico.
After a minimum of eight years, the agave plants are inspected and harvested by hand.
Each bottle is crafted by hand in Mexico City.
San Miguel de Allende is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Mexican city’s art galleries are an enthusiast’s paradise and restaurant scene is booming — try the posole at Cenaduria La Alborada.
And part of the city dates back to the 16th century and is a UNESCO World Heritage site worth exploring on its own merits.
For National Tequila Day, however, what matters about San Miguel del Allende is that it’s home to the Casa Dragones tasting room.
The Casa Dragones tasting room offers small batch tequila.
The reservations-only tasting room has only six seats, where guests can enjoy some of the best sipping tequila in the world and the bar’s signature cocktails.
Casa Dragones Joven Sipping Tequila and Blanco are served.
Casa Dragones produces their tequila in small batches — no more than 500 cases per batch — in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico.
