In the late 1940s, Hill noticed that Mexico's ancient aguas frescas were facing increasing competition from sodas. Working at his dining room table in Mexico City, with his wife and children as his primary tasters, Hill formulated his first product and entered the soda business.

I think everyone embraced this storytelling concept because we have to talk about the materials, the product, but doing it in a way that drives an emotional connection with the consumer.

We were taught when to harvest agave, how to care for the soil, and how much we could ask of the forest. Today, that small-scale tradition exists alongside a global boom that has transformed mezcal into a major industry dominated by international brands. As mezcal has spread to bars around the world, so has its footprint on the land.

Singular Archive is a cultural custodian safeguarding the world's rarest liquids. This is not a spirits brand, but an artistic endeavor in which the liquid is a part of the work itself.

After getting engaged in 2013, we started kicking around a wild idea: What if we moved back and revived the prohibition-era distillery his family had owned three generations back? The family business had been passed down for decades until it closed in 1919 due to prohibition. In particular, we had on our hearts Andy's dad, who died of cancer in 2010, but had always said, 'Don't move home unless you have a real good reason to.' This felt like it just might be that real good reason.

Spirits brand Clase Azul México will soon open a brand-new home in the city's Polanco area on Feb. 17, offering guided tastings, rotating art installations, private events, and more. The new address, dubbed "Casa de Los Leones," or House of the Lions, was built in a historic mansion where original elements like stained glassed windows were preserved, juxtaposed with contemporary design.

The project was undertaken by the collaborative team of Laboratorio Regional de Arquitectura, Taller | Mauricio Rocha, and Samuele Xompero after the demolition of the building that once housed the National Union of Cacao Producers, and which had suffered severe structural damage. The building's architecture incorporates the formal memory of its predecessor, but with a new program dedicated to showcasing the transformation of cacao into chocolate.

"At Monte Albán alone, more than 200 tombs of varying size and decoration reflect social, political and economic differences among the ancient Zapotecs," Javier Urcid, an anthropology professor at Brandeis University in Massachusetts, tells The Art Newspaper. "Built beneath residences, tombs were reused over generations-with additional burials and occasional changes to offerings or decoration. The inscribed genealogies verified membership in family lineages."

The Mexican Pizza has been a Taco Bell fan favorite since it was first introduced to the menu back in 1985 - though it went by a different name back then, the Pizzazz Pizza. In its current form at the fast food chain, this dish consists of two layers of crisp flour tortillas with refried beans and seasoned ground beef sandwiched in the middle, and "Mexican Pizza Sauce," melted cheese, and diced tomatoes on top.

Traveller check into hotels for easy access to historical Mayan sites and the cenotes beyond, with ambles through colourful squares and late, balmy nights digesting feasts over tequila tipples. Between cultural excursions and natural wonders, however, there's much to be said for the artisans in these parts. From crafted perfumes to handmade chocolates, these are the gifts and trinkets to make space for in your luggage.

A tequila girl is a state of mind. She's the "elite level of hot girl." She is always down. Her Instagram stories are tastefully blurry. She's the last one to leave the party, and the only one who doesn't seem at all hungover the next morning. Alix Earle, Kendall Jenner, and Doja Cat are all tequila girls - and who wouldn't want to embody them on a night out?

The U.S. spirits landscape has evolved far beyond the recognition of simply being the birthplace of bourbon. In recent years, we've seen a transformation in both the quality and individuality that the country's craft distilleries have been able to produce. While previous decades were dominated by the big-name distilleries, far more awards are going to craft distillers who have mastered the art of producing high-quality whiskeys, rums, gins, and more.

Stroll into nearly any Italian restaurant in the country and you'll likely get a glimpse at a row of oddly shaped bottles sitting in the oft-forgotten back bar. Those bottles contain grappa, a spirited sip most often enjoyed after a lengthy dinner when belts start feeling tight, when diners recline in their seats taking lazy last bites of half-eaten desserts.
