Would You Go on the $500,000 “World’s Most Expensive Tasting Flight?”

Avion Tequila

So you consider yourself not just a fan of tequila, but rather a connoisseur of the liquor. Well how much do you really like drinking it? Enough to spend a half million dollars on it? Well that’s exactly what you can due thanks to an intimate travel experience that has been set up by Tequila Avion. For the price of $500,000 dollars you can embark on one of the most unique and luxurious tasting flights available. So what exactly do you get with that incredible price tag?

First, you will be flown out to Jalisco, Mexico on a private jet where the Avion distillery and headquarters are located. You will receive a private tour of the entire complex, and then get to taste all of their various tequilas, including their special reserves. You will also get the opportunity to dine the home of Avion’s leading distiller and tequila mastermind, Alejandro Lopez.

The package is a 3-day, 2-night experience and they will put you up in the luxurious Las Alamandas Hotel during your stay in Mexico. A photographer will accompany you around to document the experience as well. You will learn nearly everything about tequila here and will even have the chance to craft your own batch. You’ll harvest the agave plant of your choice and even pick out what barrel it will be aged in for over two years. But most importantly, you will get to enjoy all the tequila that you want, and the good stuff too. Avion was awarded the “World’s Best Tasting Tequila” at the World Spirits Competition that was held in San Francisco, a title that all tequila brands seek.

So I suppose you will have to ask yourself just how much you truly enjoy tequila. Sure the package is nice and has a lot to offer, but is it really worth $500,000 dollars? I guess that’s for you to decide.
