Excellent Mezcal Tastinf Experience - Alex, the owner of the mezcal tasting bar, was incredible. I had no idea what to expect from the mezcal tasting experience, and I was blown away. The overall experience was educational, in a fun way. I learned so much about mezcal, tequila, and even wine. We learned about how mezcal was made, how to determine quality mezcals, and about our personal preferences. I highly recommend this experience for couples or groups of friends.

Fantastic, one of kind learning experience (with tequila!) - The tequila class and tasting was fantastic! Alex was so knowledgeable and we spent the entire rest of our trip using his teachings to discern the quality of the rest of the tequila (and wine) that we had. I learned so much and had a great time.

Must do San Miguel activity! - Alex's Tequila vs Mezcal class was great! It was educational and fun at the same time. He does a great job of explaining how to judge the quality of a spirit vs one's personal preference (just as valid!) His style is accessible and entertaining, definitely a must do in SMA!

First class!!! This is our 5th visit to San Miguel and ICAVI is one of our favorite experiences. - Alex is a phenomenal teacher who takes learning about spirits and wine to a whole new level. Super informative, definitely NOT pretentious, unique and fun! We enjoyed the Mexican Spirits class so much yesterday we are going back today for the wine class. If you enjoy learning about what you are drinking I guarantee you will love this experience.

Great time! Must try - What a FANTASTIC experience. So with tastings, it’s inevitable that you’ll drink. Obviously…but with THIS it was so much more. Alex is so passionate about what he does, that you leave with more than just a buzz. You leave with a genuine appreciation of the Tequila/Mezcal. You learn quality, and how to tell the difference. You learn how products are made. Knowledge that I know I’ll remember for the long haul. We had a great group, and this was definitely a highlight for the trip. The only downside was that it’s advertised with “snacks/small plates for pairing.” We didn’t get any kind of food during the tasting, but outside of that it was advertised. Would do it again.

Good, but not exactly what we booked - This booking did not turn out quite as expected. We tried to confirm a time via email, unsuccessfully, so stopped by the location when arrived in San Miguel, and on the second try finally were able to speak with Alex, the event leader. We rescheduled, as he had no record of the booking, and then there were others invited to what we thought was to be a private tasting. Also, this was described as including wines and tapas in addition to spirits, but neither was not part of the tasting. So while the event was nice, it was not exactly what we booked. Keep that in mind when deciding your preferred activity.
