You step out under a high, dry sky and the agave fields spread like a regiment of blue-green spears, each piña a patient center of gravity daring you to walk closer. The road to Tequila climbs gently from Guadalajara’s basin into volcanic soil that has shaped the spirit here for centuries — dusty terraces, low scrub, and the slow geometry of planted agaves.
