La Piñata

What’s La Piñata you ask? Let’s break it down.

​Piña:

The heart of the Agave plant and the starting point for all Tequila & Mezcal.

​Piñata:

A totem made of papier maché brought out at celebrations and heavily associated with Mexico.

​La Piñata:

A celebration of Agave spirits, Mexican culture and an opportunity to taste some of the best Tequila and Mezcal side by side.

We’ve lined up over 20 producers, who will be equipped with dozens of Tequilas and Mezcals between them.

​Each will host a stand dotted around Tobacco Dock for you to have a chance to really explore the category – no gimmicks, no spin, just great spirits served by passionate producers.

​Following last year’s second event, we’ve decided to add even more ways to enjoy Tequila and Mezcal at the show in 2023…

​While all the producers will be there to talk you through their ranges, we’ll also have a bar serving up the very best Margaritas, Palomas and Micheladas for when you fancy something longer.

In our Masterclass room, there will be talks and tutored tastings hosted by experts, delving into the specifics of certain styles, as well as panel discussions covering the hot topics impacting the category right now.
