When David Ravandi envisioned 123 Organic Tequila (Uno Dos Tres), he was inspired to design a brand specifically with wine enthusiasts in mind.  The intimate dinner at the new Sangrita Grill + Cantina in Ka’anapali will pair Mexican specialties with Ravandi’s ultra premium tequila.  Ravandi will be on site at Maui’s only tequila and mezcal bar to discuss the making of the tequila and share stories of his prestigious global career.

The delicate floral aromas and complex mineral flavors found in 123 Organic Tequila are the result of artisanal, small-batch distillation and estate hand bottling.

From the purity of its source to the integrity of its packaging, 123 Organic Tequila captures the finest expression of 100 percent Blue Agave.  From pristine agave plantations to iconic bottles that are hand-blown from recycled glass and labeled with recycled paper and soy inks, sustainability is the hallmark of this exceptional brand.

Chef Paris Nabavi will present the menu, featuring oyster shooters, scallop ceviche, seafood chile rellenos, and lamb barbacoa finished off with a Mexican chocolate tamale.
