The Pueblo of Tequila



If you are a fan of tequila or looking for some good experiences drinking tequila, there is nothing for you here.

However, if you are into charming, beautiful, quiet little towns at the foot of extinct volcanoes, where the streets are paved in obsidian, you would probably really enjoy a visit here. And yes, there is a wonderful museum that gives you some nice insights into the history of tequila.

But no fun tequila drinking was to be found anywhere by these two thirsty tourists. The closest we came to THAT, was finding a store that had a snappy bottle of Alacran Tequila (Scorpion!). But, they couldn't give us any samples and it wasn't for sale anywhere in the town. Go figure. We did come home with some ace obsidian souvenirs, however. More rocks to add to our already heavy luggage.

We did drive by miles and miles of beautiful agave fields. And its worth mentioning that volcano one more time. It was magnificent.
