Overview
We've certainly had some fun with Mexican spirits this month and the revelry is set to continue in March at Tio's Cervecería. The whole month is dedicated to mezcal, the smoky agave spirit that — despite popular assumption — is more akin to whisky than tequila. Tio's will be serving a mezcal-themed menu all month, but on Sunday, March 31, is when the real festivities will take place.
The Surry Hills drinking den to host its fourth tasting event of over 50 notable mezcals all handpicked by the talented team. The tasting session is free so we recommend heading there early to secure a spot at the bar. Doors open at 3pm. As well as trying tasty sips from the likes of Don Amado, Mezcal Vago and Los Danzantes, you'll also have the chance to chat to some of Australia's top mezcal experts — and find out what the difference really is between tequila and mezcal.
The merriment continues from 5.30pm when chef Rosa Ciefuegos (whose Marrickville Market stall and new Dulwich Hill store create quite the queue) will be in the kitchen dishing out authentic Mexican tacos and tamales. And an affordable cocktail menu will be on-hand, too, to keep the agave-fuelled fun going well into the evening.
