I Hart Agave

Overview

The minds behind one of Melbourne's best-known rum festivals, I Hart Rum, are back for another boozy tasting party at Whitehart — only this time around, they're swapping sugarcane for the humble agave plant. And they're digging in deep.

Across two sessions on Sunday, October 30 (12pm and 4pm), I Hart Agave will see the container bar transformed into a temple to tequila, mezcal and sotol, where you'll get to sample pours from more than 20 different local and international brands. Sip your way through both levels of the festival, then settle in with a few of the day's discounted agave cocktails, or drop by the dedicated frozen margarita bar.

For those keen to learn more, there's a program of expert-led masterclasses and seminars, plus a Q&A panel where you can unpack any burning agave-related questions. As always, Whitehart will be dishing up DJ tunes, projections and a roster of food trucks.
