A toast to Tres Agaves Tequila, Berkeley's own tequila makers for being named Best Locally Made Liquor in the East Bay Express' Best of the East Bay issue.
The recognition couldn't have gone to a better company, but then again, we've loved Tres Agaves since they made our In the Wake and Fireworks patrons so very happy with free pre-show tastings. In fact, it was at one of those tastings that the folks at the Express first brought a glass of Tres Agaves tequila to their lips.
Here's what the East Bay Express had to say:
Tres Agaves may not be the very best tequila on the planet for snooty-snoots. But if you're a righteous margarita fan — if nothing tastes better on a late afternoon in warm July than a long thwick of the sour-sweet stuff through a salty glass rim — then hometown Tres Agaves, formulated especially for mixing, should be your go-to brand. Leave it to a Berkeley tequila and mix-maker to come up with the first margarita mix that uses only organic agave nectar as a sweetener. The Express first sampled the Tres Agaves blend in the courtyard of the Berkeley Rep prior to John Leguizamo's recent one-man show there. Was it him, or was it the delectable medley of ingredients that made the evening such a memorable event? Who knows? But one thing is for sure: Where Tres Agaves goes, we will follow.
