EP 71 - You Really Mezcal Me Sometime...

We celebrate International Mezcal Day with a very special guest. The Global Brand Ambassador of Ilegal Mezcal Gilbert Marquez (@gilbertmezcal). Gilbert teaches us mezcal basics and talks about the special craft that is unique to mezcal alone. Agave can grow as many as 35 years before being harvested by hand, cooked underground and eventually distilled in traditional alembic copper stills. Listen this week to fall in love with this smoky artisanal spirit that is taking America by storm.
