Spirits as Landscapes

In this conversation with Eric Zandona we try to address one of the elephants in the room: can mezcal flavor be powerful enough to convert a non-believer? Are these plants communicating a full culture through a glass or is this just a blatant exaggeration? Eric has been lucky enough to have tasted hundreds if not thousands of spirits from all around the world and he was generous enough to try and tackle why this may or may not make sense. 

Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico. It’s hosted by Lou Bank and Chava Periban. 

Episode Notes

If you want to check the American Distilling Institute Competition that Eric runs you can find it here. 

Eric has written books such as “The Bourbon Bible” and the “Tequila Dictionary” both available in Amazon. 

Lately I’ve been receiving questions regarding quality educational resources to know more about spirits. I am a huge fan of the videos and everything posted within the ADI, so you can go and check that out.
