Tasting Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare for Tasting

    Gather all the tequila selections, lime wedges, sea salt, and chilled water. Set up a tasting area with small glasses for each tequila.

  2. 2

    Salt the Rim (Optional)

    If desired, moisten the rim of the tasting glass with a lime wedge and dip it in sea salt. This enhances the flavor experience.

  3. 3

    Pour the Tequila

    Pour 1 oz of each selected tequila into its own glass. You can have 3 different types of tequila for the tasting.

  4. 4

    Taste the Tequila

    Start with the first tequila. Take a small sip, let it roll on your palate, and note the flavors. Follow with a lime wedge and a sip of chilled water to cleanse your palate before moving to the next.

  5. 5

    Enjoy and Compare

    Repeat the tasting process for each tequila. Discuss the flavors, aromas, and your preferences with your tasting companions.
