Stepping up Their Game: A New A Tequila Reaches for Top Shelf Customers

Tequila gets a bad rap. many people are only familiar with its lower quality iterations — pounded punishingly as shots or mixed into syrupy sweet margaritas made to mask the burn. But fine tequila is meant to be sipped and savored, and if you’re in the market to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a tequila tipple, you’ll find few ways more luxurious than the Avión Collection Gift Set.  For a mere $249, Tequila Avión — in partnership with the producers of legendary Waterford Crystal — offers this decanter and rocks glasses set so you can sip in elegance. Its design is meant to look like a piña, which is the center of the agave plant and the source to tequila’s signature flavor. It’s an ideal way to serve Tequila Avión, whose silver tequila has won  accolades such as“World’s Best Tasting Tequila” and “Best Unaged White Spirit” at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
