Join us on July 23rd, from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. for an El Jimador Tequila Tasting.
Blue agave may be the heart of tequila, but it is the jimador who brings it to life! Knowing precisely when and exactly how to harvest the agave requires incredible expertise, which is why the jimador commands so much prestige in the tequila industry. Like his father and grandfather before him, José Cortes is a true master and he is now the head jimador at Casa Herradura, one of the oldest and most respected tequila producers. Not only does he oversee the harvests of Casa Herradura’s superior agave, he educates consumers and tequila aficionados the world over on the fine art of his craft. José is also the primary ambassador for El Jimador Tequila – Mexico’s bestselling tequila!
