This experience is more like Mezcal workshop, on the firs part we show, process, classification, geographical situation, agaves and regions, and then in the practical part you will have a blind comparative tasting between the different areas and agaves, everything leaded by a professional agave specialist and international sommelier

Wonderful experience, Alex is a wealth of knowledge and a good teacher to boot. Great class, walked away with an understanding of not only Mezcal but also some clue of wine and other alcohol tasting techniques and appreciation. Highly recommend.
The tasting was so informative, in a cute little tasting room. I forgot the hosts name, but you could tell how passionate she is about mezcal.
Alex is amazing. Go now - even if you have tasted wine in many places, you will learn something new and experience some wonderful new spirits.
Jimena was excellent guide on tequila and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend for a tequila tasting. She focuses on knowledge and experience without trying to sell you anything. Would do again for wine or mezcal!
This was such an informative experience and I am not even a mezcal drinker! We really enjoyed it!!! I recommend this to groups or couples!
We really enjoyed our experience with Alex! He was passionate, excited, funny and extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much and would highly recommend this class. It gave us in depth knowledge and insight into Mezcal. We loved it!
Super educational, highly personalized experience We thoroughly enjoyed our mezcal tasting with Jimena. We learned a lot and enjoyed the experience very much.
Well worth the experience! Alex and wife (maybe girlfriend I forget) are bonified experts, natural educators, Ernest, and good people- We didn’t know what to expect but all of us very much enjoyed it- Three couples from Florida and Chicago and we learned a lot and it was fun- Helped inform the rest of our trip when ordering drinks etc- Unique experience, good stuff! btw- right point blank next to Jardin
I went to Mexico looking for a knowledge experience on tequila and mezcal and at ICAVI I got the best of the Tastings. The experience with Alex was wonderful, I taught myself to appreciate the different attributes of agave distillates, all the technical aspects, their history, classifications, Denominations. The atmosphere of the place is quite welcoming and exclusive, you feel important as Alex and his wife strive to make you learn and feel at ease. Alex’s mastery and knowledge transcends cultures and you can spend hours chatting about Wines, as he is an expert. If you are looking for an unforgettable, exclusive experience and with the attention of the best do not hesitate to come to ICAVI. Alex, thank you very much for your dedication and passion and for giving us your knowledge. We will definitely return with other lovers of Tequila, Mezcal and Mexico!!!
This is a must do while in San Miguel. I've been to wine tastings in many parts of the world and this one, with Alex at this beautiful store, ICAVI was by far the most informative while being really, really fun. Alex and his wife Jimina are incredible hosts and are eager to share their extensive knowledge. I am certain that others will love this experience as much as we did.
