Mexican hand gestures in a mezcaleria

I’m accustomed to people making hand gestures at me, whether in the USA or Mexico. And I’m generally able to understand those gestures in my home country. But just as I don’t understand the spoken language in Mexico, I’m a bit lost on these gestures, too. Luckily, on this specific Agave Road Trip, I have a couple of interpreters to help. Hands are flying in this episode of Agave Road Trip!

Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico. This episode is hosted by Lou Bank, Dr. Steven Alvarez of St. John’s University, and Ismael Gomez of Laika Spirits and Cruz de Fuego Mezcal.

Episode Notes

This episode’s cover merges art and artist! The circular logo (our standard logo) is by CHema Skandal! For this cover, I replaced Artie with a crude photo-to-art image that is actually CHema Skandal!

And now … the gestures presented in video. (Apologies in advance for Steven’s whistling. He clearly didn’t earn his doctorate in Silbo Gomero studies.)

Should you worry about plastic in your water-bottle mezcal?
