AGAVE SPIRITS GUIDE
„Tequila/mezcal consumers should know and appreciate the nature of the agave. Its slow growth, its unique organoleptic properties, the hard work in the field and production, the cultural heritage, as well as the economic, cultural and social advantages and disadvantages of this true distilled soul of Mexico.“
Manuel Weisskopf, co-founder of Club Cantina.
The growing popularity of agave-based spirits has led to positive developments, such as the increasing attention given to „100 % agave tequila“.
„The idea for Club Cantina was born over five years ago (2019), in collaboration with Gernot Allnoch, Markus Nikowitsch, Benjamin Teeuwsen and Manuel Weißkopf. We realised that there was a great lack of education and that we should dedicate ourselves to this topic. Club Cantina was born.“
