Don Adolfo shares the remarkable journey of Alquimia Tequila, from inheriting his grandfather's ranch in Mexico to pioneering organic agave farming in a region where everyone said it couldn't grow.

• Preserving family legacy by converting conventional farmland to organic agave cultivation despite local skepticism
• Creating an "organic agave protocol" that combines traditional methods with modern organic soil science
• Achieving higher sugar content (brix) in agave through organic methods compared to conventional farms
• Witnessing climate change effects as agave maturation time has decreased from 7-10 years to just 5 years
• Developing sustainable solutions for processing waste products instead of dumping them in rivers
• Addressing industry issues including chemical additives that aren't disclosed on tequila labels
• Aging tequila naturally in oak barrels for extended periods (up to 14 years) for exceptional flavor
• Winning over 75 gold medals and multiple platinum awards in international competitions
• Teaching neighboring farmers organic methods for free with the agreement they'll share knowledge with others
• Demonstrating how to make a "slim margarita" using fresh citrus and organic agave nectar
