  "textContent": "There’s been a gradual metamorphosis to tequila’s narrative over the last several years. Little by little, pieces of its old reputation of being a good-time party drink of questionable quality have sloughed off like shedded skin. In its place is a shiny new narrative framing the agave spirit as a potent potable to be properly poured, sipped, and appreciated.
