Some fish swim upstream.

This one swims straight to your bar.

Crafted by the celebrated Los Castillos workshop in Mexico City, this silver-plated marvel flips and flexes in your hand, its articulated body rippling from head to tail. Those gleaming scales aren't merely for show. Open his jaws and he'll make quick work of a bottle cap with all the confidence of a seasoned estate steward.

At seven inches long, he's less guppy than trophy catch—the sort of object that earns a permanent place on the bar cart, appears at every garden party, and somehow becomes the guest everyone remembers.

Marked Los Castillos, Hecho en Mexico D.F., and Plateado, this whimsical mid-century bottle opener is as much sculpture as barware, carrying the unmistakable charm that made the Los Castillos workshop one of Mexico's most admired makers of decorative metalwork.

Because at Stags Head Retreat, even the fish know how to keep the drinks flowing.
