— Fairways & Agaves Excellence Award Citation, 2026
In a destination not short on tequila bars and mezcal lounges, Agavia Bar distinguishes itself through an unwavering commitment to education, authenticity, and exceptional hospitality. This is not a place where agave spirits are merely served—they are understood, explained, and celebrated with the rigor of a fine wine program.
What elevates Agavia above its peers is the depth of knowledge embedded in every interaction. Their certified agave sommeliers don't simply pour spirits; they guide guests through production regions, distillation methods, and tasting techniques that transform casual drinkers into informed enthusiasts. The educational component here isn't an afterthought—it's the foundation upon which every experience is built.
The spirits selection itself demonstrates genuine connoisseurship. Beyond mainstream offerings, Agavia sources rare expressions from family palenques across Oaxaca, Durango, and Jalisco—bottles that most visitors would never encounter through typical tourist channels. This commitment to authenticity extends to relationships with producers, ensuring that guests experience the full spectrum of Mexican agave culture.
