A low table, colorful papel picado overhead and the sharp, vegetal perfume of agave—the scene at a tequila master class in Cancun feels immediate. Participants sit close to a certified Tequilier who lays out small tasting pours, guiding the room from blanco’s bright citrus to añejo’s warm caramel. Plates of two chef-made tacos arrive between sips, each bite chosen to highlight a specific spirit note while a dessert taco resets the palate.
