For eight years, the Jose Cuervo Express has been taking agave spirits lovers on a chug across untouched Mexican countryside, and now the Tequila train is upping the ante with the launch of its Elite Wagon. The new experience from the liquored up rail line adds luxury to the spirited travel experience.
The black and gold train travels from the city of Guadalajara to the little town of Tequila. It’s an 11-hour experience in grand vintage style replete with bottomless Tequila. The new Elite Wagon finds guests in an elegant wood-paneled car featuring floor-to-ceiling windows. Guests in this class can access two luxurious lounges and a premium open bar stocked with Reserva de la Familia, Maestro Dobel, Gran Centenario, and 1800. In case you’d like something other than Tequila just to mix things up, there’s also rum, vodka, whiskey and a new line of custom cocktails. The Wagon has 37 spaces distributed in two rooms for 10 people, two tables for four people and three rooms with tables for two people.
On top of the drinks, guests also get to enjoy regional snacks as well as onboard entertainment. A master Tequilier guides travelers through a three-glass tasting, giving a more indepth look at what’s going into your body and what your senses are experiencing, all in an effort to help you better appreciate what this trip is all about.
On the Jose Cuervo Express trip, you’ll visit Latin America’s oldest distillery, Jose Cuervo’s La Rojeña, and have the opportunity to walk through agave fields. Guests will also have time to walk around the town of Tequila. The entire Elite experience is priced at around $166 per person and can be enjoyed at sunrise or sunset.
If you’re looking for a more Caribbean-inspired Tequila vacation, Casamigos has teamed up with Jumby Bay Island resort on the Caribbean island of Antigua to offer hotel guests a Margarita hotline, the most convenient way to keep properly hydrated. On top of the cocktail delivery service, the luxury hotel and George Clooney, Rande Gerber, and Mike Meldan-created Tequila brand have also collaborated on a pop-up beach bar.
