Mexico finds 11,520 tequila bottles with liquid meth at port

Mexican Navy inspectors intercepted more than 11,000 tequila bottles that actually contained nearly 10 tons of concentrated liquid meth, officials say.

Mexican Navy inspectors have intercepted 11,520 tequila bottles bound for export that actually contained nearly 10 tons of concentrated liquid meth, the Navy said Monday.

Photos of the seizure show a sniffer dog alerting inspectors to cardboard boxes of glass bottles full of a brownish liquid, consistent with the color of “añejo” or aged tequila. The labels on the bottles were not visible. Mexico's Tequila Regulatory Council, a trade and certification group, did not immediately respond to requests for comment on whether anything similar had occurred before.
