“Translating Tequila” Seminar

Hosted by: Tyler Wang
Brand Ambassador
El Tesoro Tequila

101 level conversation about the history and process of making tequila.

Tyler Wang is the Brand Ambassador for El Tesoro Tequila based in Houston, Texas, and covering the central United States.

“Life is a treasure, so make it memorable.” By harnessing experiences gathered over a decade in the best restaurants and bars in Boston, Tyler strives to use the tenants of hospitality -- compassion, creativity, and thoughtful collaboration -- to bring El Tesoro to life in ways that honor the rich legacy of the Camarena's and their community of tequila artisans.

During his time behind the bar, Tyler worked in and was mentored by the city's most beloved bar icons leading to accolades and awards such as Zagat 30 under 30 and Boston’s Best Bartender as well as team recognitions through Tales of the Cocktail and the James Beard Foundation. His cocktails have been featured nationally in Esquire, Imbibe, Tasting Panel, and the Boston Globe as well as numerous books and cocktail anthologies. Though honored by the accolades, Tyler’s true passion lies in telling the stories held within each bottle: the histories and heritage of finely crafted spirits and humbly produced works of art.
