The Tequila Tasting
With the Tequila Tasting experience, One&Only Palmilla introduces guests to the world of fine tequilas. Each tasting starts with a brief description of the tequila production process, regions and categories from White and Reposado to Anejo and Extra anejo. The description is then followed by a guided tasting of seven high quality tequilas beginning with non-aged White Tequila to Extra Anejo which is aged a minimum of three years. Hosted at Agua, the flights are customized based on the clients’ preferences and tastes.

Dinners, Tastings and Events
Hosted by our resident Wine Director and his team of wine waiters, Mexican wine tastings are paired with a five course tasting menu.

For a private tasting experience, One&Only Palmilla can organize Dinner Under the Stars. Guests are treated to private dinner for two in the Cove, a secluded area of the resort. The meal comes complete with private butler, wine sommelier and chef to prepare guests a custom menu with signature items.
