Under the watchful eye of a Jimador, I go kick some agave ass! Notice the pina on the bottom that is cut in half. Pinas can weigh as much as 200 lbs. 15lbs of pina yield 6 bottles of tequila. Chuy, the tour guide, took this picture. We were visiting one of Jose Cuervo's agave farms in Tequila, Jalisco.
The Jimador cuts the pencas (leaves) of the agave to expose the pina.
