Trivia
[Hardcore] Called 'Agave Spirits' because 'Tequila' name is restricted to products from specific Mexican regions, but contents are high-quality 100% agave tequila itself. The founder, noticing Deccan Plateau having red soil/climate extremely similar to Mexico, completed it after years of research. Gains immense trust from Mumbai bartenders as Margarita base too.
