Viva México! Four Seasons, Punta Mita now offering guests a $20,000 Ultimate Tequila Tour

The word ‘tequila’ usually brings back memories of margaritas or better still, of juicy lemon wedges, each with a snowy cover of salt, piercing your tongue after every shot. Or in some cases, no memories at all. But a Four Seasons property in Mexico, is out to teach patrons nuances of the fine spirit, via a gourmet meal with tequila degustation and ride in a private helicopter.

The award-winning, beach facing, Four Seasons, Punta Mita is offering to fly its guests, via private helicopter, to the family-run Mundo Cuervo distillery in the town of Tequila, Mexico.

And the Four Seasons folk are making sure visiting tequila aficionados do it the customized way, with private tastings with an expert sommelier and exclusive behind-the-scenes tours.
