Tequila & Casa Herradura, We survive our 1st day
The drive from Guanajuato to Tequila on great toll hi-ways was easy and less than 4 hours. We did nearly run out of gas and had to back up on an entrance after missing the only exit to get gas. Weather remains excellent in Tequila.
Casa Maria Dulche hotel lobby. We have the hotel to ourselves as there are not many tourists in town.
.
Tequila central is very historic with the church dating back to 1600s ( I think)

We’re off to Casa Herradura

Lunch in a grand garden served with classic taco selections. Beef tongue tacos were excellent.
.
Lunch was followed by an EXTENSIVE tequila tasting. All 4 tequilas in the foreground were yummy.

A grand tour followed. Angel, our host was very patient with our questions and made it very interesting. A big thanks to Murril for arranging an exceptional afternoon.
Ample supply of tequila during the day and more at dinner. A final stop at a bar full of decorator tequila bottles and cold beer. As you might expect we all slept like babies.
Until the next.

Herradura was my favorite south of the boarder drink before discovering Cruz! Very interested in hearing the stories from the Tequila.

Have been enjoying reading about your adventures down south. We loved Tequila when we were there and also enjoyed the tour of Herradura (the anejo is the best!). We’re going back in June – can’t wait!
