The first ever coffee-table book on the fashionable white spirit from Mexico that is beginning to challenge the popularity of vodka. This book arrives at a time when specialist tequila bars are opening up all over Great Britain and offers a delightful insight into the world of tequila, taking the reader on a visually exciting tour of the origins, production processes and varieties of Mexico's national drink. There are lively descriptions of tequila's legends and heroes, plus a comprehensive listing of the one hundred finest tequilas and the best tequila bars around the world with authentic tequila-based cocktails and recipes too. A true evangelist for his country's favourite drink, Limón has put together a book that is close to a lovingly assembled hymn. The sure-fire hottest/coolest drinks book of the year!
