Jose Gutierrez

Jose is a Guadalajara native, born and raised in
Mexico. By professional training, Jose is a
certified public accountant with a degree from the
University of Guadalajara and expertise in Mexican
business, laws and taxes. He is also the master
gardener at Casa de las Flores; where he escapes
numbers to nurture the flower-filled gardens Casa
de las Flores is known for.

Having studied and traveled extensively in the
U.S., Jose is fluent in English and enjoys helping
visitors understand the practicalities of living
and doing business in Mexico — in addition to
sharing his interests in plants.

Jose can also explain the subtle differences among
the locally distilled tequilas and the excellent
local cuisine.

Ask your hosts to arrange for a personal tequila
tasting, or a complimentary guided in-house tour
of our collection of local folk art.

Stan Singleton

Stan grew up in Northern California in a family
where wine and food was always important.

Stan's father taught enology — the science of wine
making — for more than 30 years at the University
of California at Davis. Stan himself apprenticed
at Chez Panisse, Alice Waters' world-famous
Berkeley restaurant that became the epicenter of
new American cuisine.

As the chef at Casa de las Flores, Stan applies
his culinary skills to the special breakfasts
served each morning. Food, wine and art are
Stan's areas of expertise. His Master's in Fine
Art from U.C. Davis gave him a good eye for folk
art and architecture, which is evident throughout
Casa de las Flores.

As an expatriate American living in Mexico since
1985, there is little in Mexico that that Stan has
not done as a foreigner; learning the language,
starting a business, buying, building, and
furnishing property, and more.
