After checking out Factio Magazine's Art Rocks event for Art Chicago at Lumen, we definitely have a new haute tequila on our radar and it's Corzo. This tequila is the smoothest we've ever tasted and we had no problems the next morning! If you would like to repeat what the style set drank that night, here are the recipes sampled at Factio's party below. Enjoy.
