Swanky tequilas within your reach at maya

CEBU, Philippines - The Mexican Herencia de Plata family of tequilas, made of 100 percent agave, has been getting a lot of international recognition lately for its pleasant aromas and extremely enjoyable flavor. Founded by Cesar Garcia for Rio de Plata distillery in Guadalajara, Jalisco in 1943, this gold medal brand of tequila is now well within your reach at Maya Mexican Restaurant and Tequila Lounge.

For the entire month of September, Maya will be featuring three varieties of the award-winning brand at easy-on-the-pocket prices. You can sip and savor the sophistication in margaritas made with Herencia de Plata Silver at only P265+ per glass (usually P315+ per glass), or go straight for the bottle at only P2,950+ (regular price is P3,750+). The Herencia de Plata Añejo is the perfect table companion for social lubrication at a bargain P3,350+ (usually P4,475+) while the normally untouchable Herencia de Plata 27 de Mayo Extra Añejo (aged 10 years) is an accessible splurge at a tasting price of P925+ (usually P2,105+) for a 45 ml. pour or a bottle price of P14,000+. After all, life is too short to be drinking cheap tequila.

Maya’s weekly treats still reign with the perfect mid-week break – tequila tasting tours on Wednesdays – with your choice of 8 premium tequilas at only P725+, including a free order of salsa roja and homemade sangrita.

Tuesdays and Thursdays are too-good-to-be-true taco days with a buy-one-take-one deal on all varieties of tacos, including slow roasted pork, shredded chicken, crispy fish and Angus flank steak tacos, handmade with 100 percent imported corn masa tortillas.

Fridays and Saturdays set off the perfect weekend vibe with a live DJ from 10PM onwards with an eclectic mix of music ranging from classic rock and soul to sexy house.

Sundays and Mondays invite you to get together with your family and friends for the Para La Familia dinner at only P395+ per person for a minimum of 4 persons, where you and your loved ones get to feast on hearty Mexican family dishes.
