Introducing: Verve Culture Mezcal & Tequila Infusion & Tasting Kit
Weekend plans got us thinking about how cool these Mezcal and Tequila infusion/ tasting kits are from @verve_culture.
They come as a set that includes 4 handblown glass tasting cups (with wide mouths for full flavor absorption) and a wide top decanter that’s as gorgeous as it is “functional”. (And we’d definitely consider using the decanter as an occasional vase-it’s that stunning!)
We’ve carried Verve Culture’s products for several years now. Products and practices that are beautiful, purposeful, authentic and respectful of the people that make their items is at the heart of the brand’s philosophy.
“Each of our kitchen, home wares and gourmet food products come with a story of where it was made, by whom, and the history of the item. We believe that exposure to new cultures and experiences brings joy. As the world moves towards mass production, artisan crafts die. Join us in sustaining artisan traditions for future generations.”

Pretty clear why we love them, right?
And we love this Tequila Infusion/Tasting Kit because VC partners with Javier Gutierrez Esponsa and his team of dedicated glassblowers in Tonala, Mexico to create these beautiful pieces, with no two alike.
Glassblowing is an art that takes up to 20 years to master, and Javier’s team has glassblowers of different skill levels. Even when this beautiful set isn’t in use, it’s a striking addition to your bar cart, or counter top, or anywhere you want to showcase the handmade skills of Javier & his Team. And yes, you are doing your part to bypass mass production and keep handmade artisans working…
The Verve Culture Mezcal & Tequila Infusion/Tasting Kit is available in the shop here.
As for us at the shop…
Construction continues…the area in front of our shop is scheduled to be somewhat complete by Thanksgiving! (finishing touches will probably wait until Spring). It’s going to be SO awesome!
Come by and say ‘hi’– because even with a little construction out front, our newest neighbor @the.hip.stir just opened and you’ll DEFINITELY want to check it out... it’s FABULOUS!
