The Agave Girls are Back in Town!

In September of 2006, Joanne Weir started talking about tequila. She was delighted to learn that, like her, many women don't just like tequila, they love it: They savor it with meals; drink it slowly from a snifter; and mix it with seasonal ingredients in experimental cocktails. Fueled by this realization, Weir created Agave Girls- to help these women share their enthusiasm for fine tequila.


Join PBS Chef, author of Tequila: A Guide to Types, Flights, Cocktails and Bites, and the original Agave Girl Joanne Weir for an incredible evening of tequila, tasting and fun with Partida Tequila and Copita Tequileria y Comida.

Enjoy passed appetizers and a tasting flight of 100% blue agave Partida Tequila, followed by a three course dinner paired with Partida cocktails. Guests also have the opportunity to win fantastic prizes.

Price: $65 (price does not include gratuity)
