SUMMARY:Friday Tasting: The Legends of Miahuatlán at SF Tequila Shop
DESCRIPTION:Friday Tasting: The Legends of Miahuatlán at SF Tequila Shop\nKick off your weekend with a rare opportunity to taste the soul of Oaxaca. This Friday\, SF Tequila Shop is partnering with JVS for an exclusive tasting featuring The ImpEx Collection. We are highlighting the legendary artisanal mezcals produced by the interconnected Cortés and Ramos families. \nThese two families\, neighbors and kin in the biodiverse Miahuatlán District\, represent the pinnacle of generational mezcal mastery. From Felipe Cortés’s 60-year legacy to Victor Ramos’s lifetime of craft\, come discover why these independent bottlings are the “crown jewels” of the agave world. \nEvent Details\n📅 Date: This Friday\n⏰ Time: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM\n📍 Location: SF Tequila Shop\n🥃 Featuring: The ImpEx Collection (Agave spirits by the Cortés & Ramos families) \nWhat to Expect\nThe Stories of the Stills: Learn the fascinating history of the Cortés and Ramos lineages. Discover how these families have refined the distillation of rare Agave karwinskii sub-species (like Bicuixe and Madrecuixe) across four generations. \nThe “Independent” Flight: Sample the distinct “thumbprints” of Don Felipe Cortés and Victor Ramos. Because The ImpEx Collection bottles their distillations separately\, you can compare the structural elegance of a Cortés batch against the vibrant complexity of a Ramos release. \nExpert Insights: Our partners from JVS will be on-site to walk you through the technical differences\, from Don Felipe’s 60-year legacy to Victor’s 50+ years tending the fires. \nNo RSVP required. Stop by\, enjoy a pour\, and take home a piece of Oaxacan history. \nSF Tequila Shop: Your Gateway to Mexico’s Finest Spirits Has Grown\n  \nBernal ConnectMike Doherty serves as Chief Experience Officer at Greening Projects\, a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming underutilized urban spaces into vibrant green areas
