Geocache Description:


This cache is NOT at the posted coordinates, but they're a good spot to pick up some tequila.

To find the cache you must solve the following quick puzzle about Jose's favourite bebida and Mexico's "National Drink" -- tequila (click). Here's a catchy little tune from one of my favourite artists in Puerto Vallarta (click). SALUD!

To find the final cache coordinates you need to answer the following questions:


1. Tequila is a regional specific name for a distilled beverage made from the ______ agave plant. ["A" = the number of letters in the missing name]

2. The two basic categories of tequila are mixtos and 100% agave. Mixtos use no less than ? % agave, with other sugars making up the remainder. ["B" = the numerical percent represented by ?]

3. Tequila is usually bottled in one of ? categories. ["C" = the number of categories]

4. Mexican laws state that tequila can only be produced in the state of Jalisco and limited municipalities in how many other states? ["D" = the TOTAL number of Mexican states]

5. What brand of tequila is mentioned in the song Tequila Talkin'? ["E" = the number of letters in the name]

Now use the sum of "A+B+C+D+E" to get "X" and use "X" in the following equation:


N 46 26.( X - 18) W 063 37.(X + 573)



You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
