Quote & Fact...
Quote:
"If you find someone who makes you smile, who checks up on you often to see if you're okay. Who watches out or you and wants the best for you. Who loves and respects you. Don't let them go. People like that are hard to find."
"You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet."
~ Franz Kafka
Facts: Tequila
1.) Blue Agave, the cornerstone of tequila, embarks on a slow journey to maturity. Taking a remarkable 8-12 years to fully mature. The maturation of the plant directly influences the quality and flavor of the tequila produced, with older plants yielding a richer, more complex flavor profile. (I prefer tequila mixed with something. Straight up gives me heartburn. Not my liquor of choice, but it is doable.)
2.) In the world of spirits, tequila stands out for its meticulous regulation. Every Weber blue agave plant, the essential ingredient for tequila, is not just grown but also numbered and registered. This precise tracking system, implemented by the Mexican government, ensures the authenticity and quality of tequila. (Wow, registered and numbered plants. I wonder if the Aztec also did that.)
