Overview

I'm Julieta — a federally certified guide trained in gastronomy in Paris and wine tourism in Bordeaux. For over a decade, I've worked directly within Guanajuato's wine and spirits scene, not observing it from the outside, but shaping it from within.

This isn't a scripted tasting menu I recite from memory. It's a conversation, guided in Spanish, English, or French, built around real technical knowledge and a genuine passion for what's in the glass — the kind of depth a group tour with six other tables simply can't offer.

What's included

  • Private, personally guided experience (not a group tasting)
  • A take-home reference booklet
  • A dish of your choice, one per person
  • Guided tasting of 6 Mexican spirits
  • Guide fluent in Spanish, English, and French
  • Gratuities

What to expect

Beyond tequila lies a universe of flavor: mezcal, sotol, raicilla, bacanora, pox. A privately designed Mexican spirits tasting that reads six distillates through the lens of terroir, denomination of origin, and generations of ancestral technique — not a bar crawl, an education of the palate.

Available Interpretations:
• Tequila vs Mezcal — A comparative reading of agave varieties, production methods, and regional identity.
• The Six Spirits of Mexico — An overview of the country’s principal distillates within their geographic and cultural context.
• Mezcal Uncovered — A deeper immersion into mezcal, from cultivation to final expression.

This is not just a tasting. It's an immersion into the spirit of Mexico — a reading of terroir, history, and identity.

Includes a guided tasting of 6 Mexican spirits, one dish of your choosing, and a reference booklet to keep exploring.

Approximate duration: 2 hours
Location: San Miguel de Allende's Historic Center.
