The museum counts six individual spaces representing aspects about the evolution of the alcoholic beverage Tequila and its origins, displaying objects in relation to its production as well as a major collection of tequila containers and objects, including two blown glass bottles by the engineer Hipólito Gutiérrez, which were recognized as a Guinness record in 1996 and 1997.On the central terrace is an old agave mill, which illustrates part of the rustic tequila production process. In the permanent rooms, visitors can observe the evolution of the production of this emblematic drink through photographs, maps and some objects from pre-Hispanic times and their various variations to the present.
