Event Description A mini-exhibition of tequila bottles, on loan from El Agave, an award-winning Mexican nouvelle cuisine restaurant and tequileria in Old Town San Diego, is a complementary exhibition to VIVA MEXICO! --Heroes and Artisans. Tequila, a distilled spirit made from the blue agave plant, a relation of the lily, is a descendant of the ancient drink pulque and as poet Alvaro Mutis wrote, "is a gift of the gods." It is also a culture, and such has inspired its own art, among which are the bottles it comes in.
