4-Night / 5-Day Private Tequila Experience

Hosted by Patrick Todd

Step into the heart of Mexico’s tequila country with a guided experience built on a decade of personal exploration, connection, and passion. This is not a tour — it’s the journey I’ve always wanted to offer: a behind-the-scenes look at the people, places, and pours that define the true spirit of Jalisco.

Together, we’ll travel from vibrant Tlaquepaque to the legendary town of Tequila. You’ll experience intimate distillery tours, unforgettable meals, small-town charm, and the kind of access you simply can’t find online. It’s the best of my travels, contacts, and tequila knowledge — rolled into one curated adventure.

🛏️ Where You’ll Stay

• 2 Nights in Tlaquepaque – Enjoy the artisan charm of this historic arts district with a stay at Quinta Don Jose, a cozy, colorful boutique hotel known for hospitality, walkable streets, and a laid-back, local vibe.

• 2 Nights in Tequila – Our home base in the heart of the agave valley is the beautiful Casa Salles, a boutique hotel connected to El Tequileño distillery, with upscale rooms and lush grounds perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration.

🥃 Distillery Lineup

Each day brings a private, guided visit to one of my favorite distilleries in the Valles region — with special access, tastings, and time to truly connect with the producers and the process:

• Cascahuin – Pure agave expression and deep family roots. A benchmark for traditional methods.

• El Tequileño – A legacy brand producing award-winning tequila with a rich history and modern elegance.

• Atanasio – Small-scale and transparent. Crafted with care and quickly gaining cult status.

• Mystery Distillery… – A special, unrevealed stop reserved exclusively for trip guests. Trust me — it’s worth the wait.

• Arette – Produced in the heart of Tequila, this distillery delivers balanced, historic, and highly respected agave spirits.

• Fortaleza – Iconic. Traditional. A tequila mecca. Walking through the doors of Fortaleza is a moment you won’t forget.

🌟 Why Join This Trip?

You could book a few distillery tours on your own. But this isn’t that. This is access you can’t Google, curated by someone who’s spent over ten years tasting, traveling, and connecting with the tequila world from the inside out.

This is the trip I would take if I only had one chance to do it right — and now I’m opening it to just a few others ready to experience tequila the way it should be experienced: up close, with intention, and in good company.
