Sinaloa, Mexico
Forget for a moment that this is the home turf of El Chapo, Mexico’s most notorious gangster. Because we’re not looking for gangsters here, we’re seeking the legendary blue agave factory that is housed somewhere up here among these the dry yellow desert hills. What is blue agave, you ask? Blue agave is a cactus-like plant. It’s spiky and imposing with colossal blue arms that fan out ten feet or more like a giant octopus that has been transplanted to the desert. Agave is used to make liquor and agave nectar, both products of the factory we hope to visit. The trouble is, when we followed the road sign and turned off the barely paved main highway in our rental car, we thought we’d be traveling on a road. But this isn’t a road. This is hardly a path, little more than a smudgy, indistinct trail that snakes through the agave-dotted hills in the most haphazard way imaginable, which sends our none-too-sturdy auto reeling this way and that, bottoming out in the gullies and lurching in the peaks, each time making us wonder if our chassis is about to disengage from the rest of the vehicle. Finally, after more than forty minutes of wondering what we’ll do if our car fractures into multiple pieces, we arrive. The factory is a lovely hacienda in the classic tradition, complete with fountains, beautiful garlands of flowers, and an old mill that turns in a gentle stream. “Hola!” says a mustachioed man straight out of a travel commercial. “Welcome to our factory.”
