Bebida!
Here are some events that I just heard about: In honor of Mexican Independence Day tomorrow, el Jimador Tequila will be holding some interesting promotions around our area. Specifically, a third generation jimador (one who harvests agave) will be visiting retail stores and restaurants to demonstrate the first step in the tequila production process: how to cut off the leaves of a large agave plant (see photo above).
Jose Cortes, head Jimador at Casa Herradura (producers of Herradura and el Jimador tequila), will talk about tequila production, what makes a good tequila, and how to best enjoy this fine spirit. You can meet him at:
La Superior (34 W. Court Street, Woodland, CA)
Zocalos (1801 Capitol Avenue, Sacramento, CA)
Centro’s (2730 J Street, Sacramento, CA)
La Superior (5731 Hillsdale Blvd, Sacramento, CA)
Carmelita’s (4071 Howard Street, Fair Oaks, CA)
