The Mayor of Flavortown himself will make a stop in Greater Cincinnati in May.

Emmy-award winning TV presenter and restaurateur Guy Fieri, best known for his Food Network show Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, will be at the Eastgate Jungle Jim’s on Monday, May 5 in support of his Santo Spirits brand. Fieri will meet with fans, take photos and sign bottles of Santo Tequila.

Santo Spirits is a collaboration between Fieri and his friend, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Sammy Hagar. The brand launched in 2019 with a selection of tequilas featuring bold and authentic flavors, free of additives. The tequila is distilled at El Viejito Distillery in Jalisco, Mexico, with traditional methods that allow the agave to shine through, says the brand.

The brand also has several award-winning spirits, including Blanco, Reposado, Añejo, a 110-proof Blanco Tequila and Mezquila, the world’s first tequila and mezcal blend.

Fans can catch Fieri at Jungle Jim’s from 5-6 p.m. on May 5.
