Valenzuela-Zapata and Nabhan take readers into the agave fields of Mexico to convey their passion for the century plant and its popular by-product, trace tequila's progress from its modest beginnings to one of the world's favored spirits, and tell how innovations from cross-cultural exchanges made fortunes for Cuervo and other distillers.
