It was incredible to walk through a landscape covered in agave fields of different species, revealing a stunning range of colors, shapes, and sizes. The hacienda itself is a beautiful place.
Explore two agave regions in one unforgettable journey
Your journey begins in Guadalajara with a stay at a boutique hotel before exploring the colorful streets of Tlaquepaque. Share your first meal with the group, raise a glass at one of the city’s iconic cantinas, and experience the unforgettable energy of authentic Mexican lucha libre.
Then travel into Los Altos, where you’ll visit two family-owned distilleries and meet the people behind some of Mexico’s most respected tequilas. Every visit offers private access, meaningful conversations, and a closer look at traditions that rarely open to the public.
On your final full day, leave tequila country behind and venture into the mountains of Ahuacatepec. Explore a 300-year-old hacienda, discover the heritage of raicilla, and experience a side of Jalisco that few travelers ever see. Surrounded by forests, history, and generations of craftsmanship, it’s the perfect finale to the most complete agave journey PKGD offers.
Discover the mountain village, the 300-year-old hacienda, and the raicilla traditions behind the final chapter of this journey.
The final chapter of the PKGD Signature journey takes you beyond tequila country and into the Sierra of Jalisco.
This short documentary introduces Ahuacatepec, its people, and the raicilla traditions preserved inside a hacienda with more than 300 years of history.
Watch the story before your journey. Then walk through the hacienda, meet the people behind the spirit, and experience the place in person.
Two regions. Two agave spirits. One journey.Los Altos introduces tequila through red soil, high elevation, cooler nights, and family-owned production.
The Sierra offers a completely different landscape, taking you into the mountains of Jalisco and into the traditions of raicilla.
Together, the two regions reveal how landscape, climate, and culture shape every agave spirit.
Tequila and raicilla are both agave spirits from Jalisco, but they come from different territories, agave varieties, and production traditions.
Tequila is made exclusively from blue Weber agave within a regulated denomination of origin. Raicilla may use different agave varieties and reflects the regional traditions of the coast and the Sierra.
Experiencing both where they are produced makes those differences tangible.
The journey leads to a hacienda with more than 300 years of history, hidden in the mountain landscape of Jalisco.
Far from traditional tourist routes, the property brings together historic architecture, local food, family stories, and the traditions surrounding raicilla de la Sierra.
It is not simply a place you visit. It is the setting where the final chapter of the Signature experience comes to life.
The experience centers on independent and family-owned producers who remain directly connected to the spirits they make.
You will meet the people behind the bottles, hear their stories, and understand the decisions that shape each expression.
These visits offer more than a tasting. They reveal the philosophy, history, and responsibility behind preserving regional traditions.
Because it goes beyond visiting distilleries. This journey connects two regions, two agave spirits, boutique hospitality, private access, and the people who preserve each tradition.
It moves from Guadalajara to Los Altos and then deep into the Sierra, creating the most complete expression of the PKGD way of traveling.
Few visitors could arrange these places, relationships, and experiences independently.
