Cuervo Mundo, next door to Sauza, is like wandering through a golden enclave of spectacular sights. The home of the most popular tequila sold in the United States has many facets that are all fascinating and in the style of high-class Mexican culture. Simple, yet complex, statues and artwork line the open-air corridors. A five-foot cuervo, or crow, that stands silently alone in the entry courtyard and tells visitors they have arrived, a bronze statue of two life-size tequileros sharing a bottle of their newest batch of tequila stand next to canopied tables waiting for lunch guests and a multi-roomed, elongated art gallery featuring the hand crafts of local artisans are only the beginning of the splendor found inside the distillery walls.
