There’s a chill in the air

Hurricane Dorian missed us, the 100-degree days are finally a thing of the past and celebrating outside includes a few drinks with some good friends. Life in South Florida means that when everyone else is partying indoors, it’s time for us to enjoy after a round of golf or evenings by the pool with some good music and great drinks.

I hope that you enjoy these as much as I do

Partida Tequila is only made from blue agave grown in the Tequila Valley, near a dormant volcano. The rich, red volcanic soil is perfect for the plant. After 7 to 10 years in the fields, it reaches close to 100 lbs. and is hand-harvested by the jimadors. There is nothing quite like a good hand-crafted tequila and Partida knows JUST how to get the freshest, natural characters out of the agave just so you can enjoy a great drink.
