Great for the Tequila Enthusiast

Wonder history of Tomas Estes. This book is full of wonderful pictures and stories of one of the greatest, if not the greatest, tequila ambassadors of all time. It is a great read and a great coffee table book with tons of wonderful pictures. I highly recommend this book for anyone who enjoys the finest, most complex, spirit on this planet.

Tomas' personal recollection of decades of dedication to the hospitality industry and tequila specifically. I've read most agave-centric books. This has most of the essentials basic understanding of the plant and its processing into remarkable spirits. I think the real value of the book is in the personal connections that Tomas developed over the years. I did tire a bit by the time it got to the obligatory cocktail section near the end.
