Lalo Tequila Signing & Talk with Eduardo "Lalo" González!

Thursday, May 29th, 2025, 2:30-4:30pm.

[30 minute presentation at 2:30pm then the bottle signing]

 

Eduardo will be back in our shop again and we are very excited! You all know how much we love Lalo Tequila @lalospirits — and we know how much y’all love this Tequila because you keep buying and enjoying it!

 

With only 3 ingredients (fully mature agave, Champagne yeast, deep well water) Lalo tequila is purely crafted for a clean taste. Blanco only, slowly sip this neat or savor in a top shelf tequila cocktail and the magic of Jalisco appears! Come meet Lalo.


Join the Environmental Nature Center and Hi-Time Wine Cellars for a fabulous afternoon of wine tasting, while helping to raise funds for environmental education in our community! Walk through the Center and stop at wine tasting stations along the trails to taste wines from several Wineries. Remember to wear trail appropriate shoes! Small bites will be provided. Live music will be provided by SideNote Keys/Bass near the top of our stream. End your walk by the firepit where you can savor Kean Coffee and dessert. Our fabulous online auction from June 23 – 28 will feature a number of excellent items.
