Complimentary Inspiro Tequila Tasting
Mar 21, 2025 only
We’re Selva-brating National Women's History Month with Inspiro Tequila, and we’ve got the brand’s owner, Mara, on hand to guide you through a tasting that’s bold, smooth, and anything but ordinary. Slide in on March 21 from 5-7pm for a complimentary experience featuring three sippable varieties of Inspiro Tequila — each one crafted with 100% Blue Weber Agave and zero additives. Think dry, floral, and effervescent with a punch of flavor that lets the tequila shine. What’s on Tap for Tasting: Inspiro Tequila Luna Blanco: Aged in oak barrels for that ultra-smooth finish, Luna Blanco hits you with silver, full-bodied vibes and notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and rosemary. Sweet agave, caramel, and a citrusy kick? Yes, please. Inspiro Tequila Rosa Reposado: This isn’t your average reposado. Aged in French rosé barrels, Rosa brings rich, rose-hued flavor with toffee, vanilla, and red berries. It’s smooth, silky, and super easy to drink. Inspiro Tequila Special Reserve Añejo: For the true connoisseur, this ultra-limited Añejo is aged in French oak and Pinot Noir barrels for that wow factor. Complex, silky, and ridiculously good. She's the Moment: Inspiration $18 - Inspiro Blanco Tequila, Maraschino, Violette, Lemon, Sparkling Wine. It’s fizzy, floral, and definitely Instagram-worthy. Meet the Founder, Mara: Mara created Inspiro Tequila because she was done with additives in her tequila. She wanted smooth, clean, and seriously good stuff. Now, Inspiro is all about bringing more women to the spirits game — from the master distiller to the team getting bottles on shelves. Plus, they’re a Certified B Corp, giving back and empowering other women in business. Book a reservation now and get ready for a tequila experience like no other.

Awful service. The place was nearly empty so my friend & I sat at the bar. Took literally 20 minutes for someone to take our order - which was a bar back that I had flagged over. It was then another 10+ minutes before we received those drinks. The upside was the drinks themselves were great. It’s a neat spot but I will not be returning. I can’t imagine how much worse the service is when it’s busy.

The Selva was terrible simply terrible!!!!! Upon arrival we waited for the valet, who was busy standing talking to their buddies!!!! Smh.... Then once inside we were seated within a timely manner but once the appetizers came it all fell apart.... No utensils or plates were given... These establishments have popped up but no one is training their staff...
