As National Tequila Day approaches on July 24 more than 17% of US respondents plan to reach for more tequila in 2022 (Drizly). Travelers can head to Hacienda Encantada Resort & Residences in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, for the ultimate celebration at the resort’s new Museo del Tequila, an onsite tequila museum and eatery.

Guests can relax and sip the smooth beverage, while learning about the history and unique properties of the drink, at Museo del Tequila, an outdoor tequila museum where travelers can participate in tastings and leave with a deeper appreciation for their favorite drink.

The museum offers more than just tequila, giving guests the opportunity to discover other agave-based spirits such as mezcal, raicilla, and bacanora, or sotol from the asparagus family. Expert tequileras, or tequila sommeliers, are available to share their wealth of knowledge on the traditional Mexican spirits. Visitors can book a private experience for a taste of all things agave, just steps away from their suite.
