As most things that have been created in Northern Mexico, Bacanora tends to create more questions than answers. It may have and active Denomination of Origin and there are some really awesome brands out there bringing some delicious juice, but many of the stories linked to its origins are still obscure.

In this conversation with Javier Oroz (mastermind behind @bastardosdelbacanora and @santocuviso) we tried to briefly explore Bacanora's extremely convoluted history. We hope you enjoy it!

How big is it too big? When does a mezcalero stops being "small batch" and migrates to something that could be labeled as not truly artisanal?

In this conversation with jóven Jon Darby (patrón at @sin_gusano) we dabble around some some of these questions, while sipping some rarities, that according my invitee prove that he may not be the worst purist in this industry.

I hope you enjoy this one.

A popurrí is the ultimate mix, an intense collage of songs merged together to accelerate enjoyment.

I am sure that the term has been confined to music because if someone were to create the "taco popurrí" it would be too much for humanity to withstand.

But jokes aside, this episode is exactly that, a "Popurrí" .

Fabio Raya, one of my favorite scientists on earth, was in town and we decided to talk all things agave in one shot while we were sipping gorgeous pulque.

I hope you enjoy this one.
