SIPS – Unveiling the Spirit of the Plant - Join us for an enlightening journey into the world of agave spirits in this Agave 101 episode! We tackle everything you didn't know about this fascinating plant. From tequila and mezcal to lesser-known spirits, we dive deep into the cultivation, production, and unique characteristics of agave. Discover the secrets behind the production processes, the varieties of agave, and the nuances that make each spirit distinct.

In this episode, we taste a selection of agave spirits, including a refreshing sotol from La Pulga, a clean tequila from Puntagave, and a smoky mezcal from Corte Vetusto. With tasting notes and ratings from our knowledgeable hosts, you'll gain a newfound appreciation for these spirits. Whether you're a seasoned aficionado or a curious newcomer, there's something for everyone as we sip, savor, and share our insights on the incredible world of agave.

We will be discussing these agave spirits and rating them from 1-5 with 5 being the best:

8:08 La Pulga Sotol Silver - SIPS - 4

20:23 Puntagave Tequila Blanco - SIPS - 4

30:17 Ilegal Mezcal Reposado - SIPS - 3

37:52 Corte Vetusto Mezcal Ensamble IV- SIPS - 5

Post production note: Mike has the worst case of bronchitis and so his voice keeps changing from the different recordings - primary and post plus coughing while we review/rate these fine products. He simply was not going to let a short term illness to delay this production for one more minute.
