With my employer going belly up my dusty bottle hunting hit a brick wall. But the Agave Goddess has shined on this pobre fool. My younger brother headed to Mexico for some R&R. I asked him to return me 2 bottles of tequila. One was El capricho 'Elixir De Agave" and JC Maestro tequilero. Well his trip yielded something else. Instead I...
