Agave Liquors

Agave Liquors runs a specialty spirits shop at Lazaro Cardenas #233 in Puerto Vallarta's Zona Romantica neighborhood, built around a single sourcing rule: everything on the shelf is Mexican, and specifically drawn from small-scale distilleries rather than the mass-market tequila brands found in most resort-town liquor stores. The tequila selection includes Cascahuin, Fortaleza, G4 and Ocho - names that carry real weight among agave-spirit enthusiasts for sticking to traditional, often family-run production methods - while the mezcal side brings in producers like Rey Campero and Don Amado, alongside raicilla and sotol, two less commonly exported agave spirits tied to specific regional traditions outside the mainstream tequila and mezcal categories. Staff run both in-store tastings and private tasting events, giving customers a way to taste through unfamiliar categories like raicilla before committing to a bottle. Beyond the Puerto Vallarta flagship, the business operates sister locations in Sayulita (two shops) and San Pancho, plus a Marina Puerto Vallarta location, forming a small regional chain across the Riviera Nayarit and Puerto Vallarta corridor rather than a single standalone bottle shop. The Zona Romantica store keeps consistent daily hours, 10am to 9pm.
