Fairmont Scottdale Princess Announces Partnership with Los Azulejos

Fairmont Scottsdale Princess Los Azulejos EventThe Fairmont Hotels and Resorts has announced a new partnership at its Scottsdale location with Los Azulejos Premium Tequila. This means that at our very own Fairmont Scottsdale Princess, guests can try new cocktails featuring these wonderful spirits. Last Thursday we attended a launch event for this partnership. We were also able to try some of these delicious new drinks as well as learn a bit about Los Azulejos.

Los Azulejos has some of the most rigorous quality control standards in the industry. It is made with 100% hand selected Blue Weber agave. Los Azulejos is produced in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico and is one of the top five distilleries in Mexico. All of the bottles are either hand blown glass or ceramic created by local artisans. All of these factors make Los Azulejos one of the most premium tequilas on the market.

In addition to fantastic bites (foie gras cotton candy, amazing ceviche, and tacos), we were treated to four wonderful cocktails from the restaurants of the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. The cocktails created by the resort tastemakers were:

  • Pineapple Smoke
