McLean, VA, September 26, 2008 --(PR.com)-- International Tasting Group (ITG), the U.S. importer of six 100% Agave Micro Tequila brands, is looking to make wine tasting passé with an interactive website that helps gourmet enthusiasts learn about the history, production, versatility and nuances of Tequila, Mexico’s most misunderstood spirit. The website has just launched its interactive training module which is available online at www.TequilaRack.com

In addition to purchasing the finest Tequila brands, visitors can explore www.TequilaRack.com to learn about the unique process and care applied to the production of 100% Agave, the top shelf of Tequila.
