La Verdad meaning "the Truth" in Spanish. This seminar will focus on the misunderstood spirit of Mezcal. Misperceived as the lesser known "cousin" of Tequila and generally assumed of a lower quality when in point in fact not only is it more appropriate to designate Mezcal the father of Tequila, we will go one step farther and explain Tequila IS a Mezcal, and furthermore that Mezcal is one of the finest hand crafted artisan spirits in the world. We will explain the worm, which was no more and remains no more than a marketing gimmick of lesser quality Mezcals ruining the image of the spirit before it has had a chance to truly blossom. Be that as it may the seed has been planted and four men intent on nurturing its growth will share their passion with those in attendance.
