点评:Not a welcoming place at all. We arrived at Tequila Cascahuín just before 2:00 pm on Wednesday December 3rd, to find only one other customer in the tasting room which we thought was a good thing! The woman behind the bar didn’t acknowledge us whatsoever—not a greeting, not even eye contact. We stood there politely, waiting for any sign of interest or basic hospitality.
After a few minutes, she finished selling a box of tequila and some stickers to the only other customer, who then left. We asked in Spanish if we could still join the 2:00 tour. She responded in Spanish that it was too late and instead of offering any explanation, she simply turned away and went back to whatever she was doing. No conversation, no courtesy, nothing.
And remember, we were the only people there. No crowd, no rush, no reason to ignore us. Sadly, it really felt like she assumed we were just another pair of Americans to brush off—something that seems to be happening more and more in tourist areas of Mexico lately. For the record, we’re Canadian, and we had traveled at considerable expense from Saskatoon to Puerto Vallarta and thenTequila and El Arenal specifically to visit this distillery.
We were genuinely interested in purchasing—and even potentially importing—their tequila to Canada. But the complete lack of respect or basic customer service made it very clear that our business wasn’t valued. A thoroughly disappointing experience.
翻译:这个地方一点也不热情。12月3日星期三下午2点前,我们到达了卡斯卡温龙舌兰酒厂(Tequila Cascahuín),发现品酒室里只有另一位顾客,我们当时还觉得挺好!吧台后面的女士完全无视我们——既没有打招呼,也没有眼神交流。我们礼貌地站在那里,等待着她哪怕一丝丝的关心或基本的待客之道。
几分钟后,她把一盒龙舌兰酒和一些贴纸卖给了另一位顾客,那位顾客随后就离开了。我们用西班牙语询问是否还能参加2点的参观活动。她用西班牙语回答说太晚了,然后没有做任何解释,只是转身继续做她自己的事。没有交流,没有礼貌,什么都没有。
要知道,当时只有我们两个人。没有拥挤,没有匆忙,也没有任何理由忽略我们。令人遗憾的是,我们感觉她真的把我们当成了又一对可以随意打发的美国人——这种情况最近在墨西哥的旅游区似乎越来越常见了。郑重声明,我们是加拿大人,我们花费了相当多的钱,从萨斯卡通出发,途经巴亚尔塔港、特基拉和埃尔阿雷纳尔,专门来参观这家酒厂。
我们真心想购买——甚至有可能进口——他们的龙舌兰酒到加拿大。但他们完全缺乏尊重,连基本的客户服务都没有,这让我们清楚地意识到,他们根本不重视我们的生意。真是令人失望透顶。
