  • Rolling AgaveScape

    For once I got to be the passenger in the car on the toll road back from Tequila to Guadalajara. I love the turquoise volcanic landscape. 95 pesos each way in June 2007.

  • Agave Tequila AZUL

    Up close and personal with my favourite succulent in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico

    * edit! * A renowned agave expert reliably informs me that it´s not Agave Tequilana Azul, but Agave Americana Var Expansa, you live and learn…

  • Monarchy

    Butterfly in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico… The common name “monarch” was coined in 1874 by Samuel H. Scudder because “it is one of the largest of our butterflies, and rules a vast domain”.

  • Agave not Tequilana

    Not the agave for making tequila, but a close cousin. Shot taken in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico
