Okay, for real, this episode is only vaguely about Raicilla. It's a bit more about profound justifications — that's a reference to a quote from my guest co-host, Shawn Miller of PKGD Group. He brings that quote up as we're talking about the white paper PKGD released a few weeks ago. That white paper is what this episode is really about. But who would listen to an episode titled, “The one about Shawn's white paper”?

For this show, The Boys celebrate the 250th birthday of our nation with two spirits that were made in America! Everyone knows Tequila has to be made in specific regions of Mexico. This show highlights an "agave spirit" made with Blue Weber Agave and with similar methods, but in the great state of Hawaii. Everyone knows Evan Williams, but this bottle is special for the 250th celebration and bottled at 117.76 proof. The best part - the agave spirit for this pairing is 118 proof, making this show one wet hot American tasting. You had to catch the Evan Williams on the shelf, and you have to go to Hawaii for this agave spirit.  But don't let that stop you!  Grab a high proof blanco, a high proof bourbon, invite your friends to listen and sip along, and Make It A Happy Friday!™ Cheers!   p.s.: In the show open, The Boys mention Brad Niccum of Tasting Tequila with Brad, one of their favorite voices in agave.  Check out his YouTube channel and find him on all the socials: linktr.ee/tastingtequilawithbrad

I recorded a few weeks ago an episode with Marissa Paragano in which we talked about the 2025 numbers from Comercam. But we got so distracted by overall sales that I forgot to highlight this one very important fact: plain, old Mezcal (in other words, the stuff that can be made industrially) has doubled in one year. Marissa was too busy with her weekly YouTube show, “The TequiLadies,” so Linda Sullivan got tagged in for the conversation!

“Before, only white people or gringos used to sell Mezcal, and the consumer was used to only buying it from those people. But now the consumer is changing their mind and saying that I want to buy from the producer. I want to know how it's made. I want to know if they are planting more agaves, or if they are not cutting trees, or what are they doing for the environment. So we have the information here. Not all of it, but maybe enough information to show the people how we do this Mezcal, how we do Palomo.” That's mezcalero Carlos Mendez Blas, owner and producer of Palomo Mezcal.

Herzlich willkommen zurück bei Behind Bars! Maria und Nathalie haben sich heute die unangefochtene Queen der Agave in die Green Door geholt: Betty Kupsa aus Hamburg. Betty hat in ihrer Karriere so einige legendäre Klassiker-Stationen abgeklappert, bevor sie auf St. Pauli schließlich ihr ganz eigenes Heiligtum eröffnete: The Chug Club. Dort revolutionierte sie 2015 mit ihren ikonischen Mini-Cocktails (Chugs) und den legendären Überraschungs-Flights die deutsche Trinkkultur komplett. Dass sie die wirkliche Königin der Agave ist, beweist ihr brandneues Tequila-Buch, das frisch erschienen ist - schließlich beschäftigt sie sich schon seit 2018 intensiv mit der Recherche zu Tequila. Heute dreht sich dementsprechend alles um die sexieste und vielfältigste Spirituose der Welt: Tequila! Die Ladies räumen radikal mit dem klassischen 90er-Jahre-Trauma aus Zitrone und billigem Kopfschmerz-Fusel auf und beweisen, was echter 100%-Agaven-Sprit im Glas wirklich abliefern kann. Betty bricht eine Lanze für das traditionelle mexikanische Handwerk und erklärt, warum der Agavenschnaps der Gute-Laune-Garant ist. Ein absolutes Highlight der Folge ist Bettys exklusives Salztasting. Ihr lernt, warum feingemahlener Salzstaub aus der Gewürzmühle das Mundgefühl komplett revolutioniert, wie Salz die Süße im Drink pusht und warum billiges Tafelsalz im Premium-Cocktail-Kontext gnadenlos geshamt gehört . Kollektiv testen sich die drei durch verschiedene scharfe, cremige und süße Variationen, die zeigen, wie wandelbar Tequila ist. Hört rein!

This liquor made with (mostly) blue agave has a complex set of rules and regulations – and a near-mythical history. In the final episode of the series, Anney and Lauren say ‘salud’ with the science and stories behind tequila.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are scientific names and common names for agaves … or magueys, to use the common name. But the common names lack commonality: A papalometl in one part of the Mixteca is a potatorum. Less than 40 kilometers away, papalometl will refer to a Cupreata. And even the scientific names get screwy. So what's a nerd to do?

A recent episode of the VinePair podcast, titled "Mezcal's Continued Search for Mainstream Success,” feels to me like it was riddled with inaccuracies. And for some reason, it also feels to me like it stands in stark contrast to the recently released 2025 numbers from Comercam, the largest of the bodies certifying Mezcal. So I asked one of my favorite numbers gabbers, Marissa Paragano, to gab about that in this gabfest episode of Agave Road Trip!

In this episode of The Agave Social Club Podcast, I sit down with Alejandro Warren Patterson of Tesoro Azul to explore the story behind the brand's rebirth and the vision driving its future.After spending several days with the Tesoro Azul team in both Michoacán and Jalisco, I had the opportunity to learn firsthand about the people, places, and traditions that have shaped the brand. Our conversation covers the deep connection Tesoro Azul has to Michoacán, the role legendary artist Marco Antonio Solís has played in the brand's revival, and how those roots continue to influence its identity today.We also take a closer look at the tequila itself, discussing production at Productos Finos de Agave, the importance of Highland-grown agave, and the decisions that go into creating a tequila that honors both tradition and quality.Whether you're interested in the stories behind tequila brands, production methods, or the people bringing new energy to the category, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Pour yourself a glass and join us for this conversation with Alejandro Warren Patterson.

We've talked about agave straws in previous episodes, but I've been spending more time digging into them.

There are places that have massive collections of beautiful, small-batch agave spirits, but having the bottles isn't the same as understanding them. And having those bottles, which are often expensive, requires additional expense in training staff. Or, anyway, are most likely going to realize their financial potential with training.

I find myself saying “multi-generational wisdom” pretty frequently, in reference to these communities I get to visit in rural Mexico. But when they start talking about how the moon affects their production of agave spirits, or the presence of a pregnant woman, I kind of laugh it off.

How often have you heard or read that a brand of Tequila or Mezcal is only using quality agaves? That makes me wonder about those poor, down-market agaves. They deserve love, too, don't they?

I met Rakshay a few years back on one of the legendary Blueblazer press tours of bars in Italy, and he let me taste the agave spirit he produces in India, Maya Pistola Agavepura. Its distilled with traditional tequila methods from an Indian-grown species of agave usually used in Mexico for mezcal, then aged on the tropical Indian island of Goa before bottling. Pistola was born during Covid and after being on the market for just a couple of years, Diageo's Indian subsidiary, United Spirits, became minority investors. Its the best non-Mexican agave spirit I've ever had. We got together to talk about Pistola , Rakshay's background in hospitality and the group he co-founded with his sister, India Cocktail Week and a lot more - enjoy!Rakshay on IG: https://www.instagram.com/rakshay/Maya Pistola Agavepura on IG: https://www.instagram.com/pistola.agave/Passcode Hospitality: https://www.instagram.com/passcode.hospitality/India Cocktail Week on IG: https://www.instagram.com/indiacocktailweek/ (Get in touch with Duff!Podcast business enquiries:  consulting@liquidsolutions.org (PR friends: we're only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses a listener question about whether agave nectar can contribute to obesity like high-fructose corn syrup, arguing that regular use of sweeteners—including agave, honey, monk fruit, stevia, aspartame, sucralose, allulose, and sugar alcohols—can maintain sweet cravings, spike insulin, and contribute to weight-loss plateaus, with added concerns such as microbiome effects, GI upset, and aspartame's neurotoxicity. She notes insulin's role in fat storage and blood pressure via sodium retention, and suggests that needing a sweetener in coffee or tea may indicate dependence on sweetness. She then covers a newly developed, validated Food Noise Questionnaire (FNQ) published in Obesity to measure intrusive food-related rumination, highlighting its five Likert-scale items, study sample characteristics, and the need for further research, including effects of GLP-1 drugs.

Last episode I talked with Linda Sullivan about the tumbado process of harvesting agave. This episode … also about tumbado, but with Paulo Rodriguez, the raicillero who brought the method back to Chacala, Jalisco! So, why two episodes about the same thing? I was maybe a bit under the influence when I recorded the episode with Paulo, forgot we'd recorded it, got home, and recorded last week's episode with Linda.

I was listening to Tim McKirdy's podcast “Mezcal's Untold Past, Soaring Present, and Fragile Future,” and he talks about an agave harvesting process called tumbado, where you disconnect the plant from its roots and let it sit there in the field. It was said to be an old practice that had been lost. Even in the podcast, he said he only heard about this from one guy, so I thought, yeah, probably not really a thing. And then I met Paulo Rodriguez in Chacala, Jalisco.Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

In this episode with Doug Richardson, we talk about all things agave. From how to choose the right species if you are working in California, to naming some of the most extravagan agaves that nobody has yet distilled but that may yield some delicious spirits.  For some, planting agaves outside of Mexican soil is a thorny issue, but just as it has happened to grapes, cacao or oranges, I think crops love to travel, and if they happen to fit a different place and culture, they should be given the chance to thrivein those new environments. I may be wrong, but that is where I stand

I was talking with a brand owner about the process used to make his Tequila, and when he described his fermenters, I asked if they were indoors or outdoors. I hadn't realized the regulations required them to be indoors – or, anyway, he said they did, though I found nothing in the NOM to corroborate that. But … he said they did because when you go around to these traditional vinatas, it was disgusting to see all the birds pooping in the fermenters. But … is it?Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

Earlier this month, journalist Claudia Rosel released three Mezcal stories via the AP. Some of the agave nerds derided the stories as “at least 5 years late.” But I'd suggest they didn't understand the stories. Or maybethey don't understand the lifecycle of agave? Or … maybe they don't understand the average consumer?

The March 18 edition of the AgNet News Hour continued an in-depth conversation with Stuart Wolf and the Wolf family of Wolf Farming and Processing, highlighting how innovation is helping California growers adapt to ongoing water shortages and shifting agricultural realities. Farming on the west side of the San Joaquin Valley has become increasingly difficult, with growers once again facing limited water allocations—currently around 15 percent. That uncertainty is forcing farmers to rethink how they use their land and what crops can realistically be sustained in the future. For Stuart Wolf, the answer lies in diversification and forward-thinking strategies. One of the most promising developments discussed is the expansion of agave farming in California. The Wolf family has already planted approximately 550 acres, with long-term ambitions that could reach thousands of acres if market demand continues to grow. Unlike traditional row crops, agave requires minimal water, making it an attractive option for regions facing long-term water constraints. The opportunity extends beyond farming. The goal is to build a California-based agave industry, supplying craft distillers and potentially creating a new domestic spirits market similar to tequila or mezcal. However, the industry is still in its early stages. Growers need contracts and demand before expanding acreage, while distillers want a reliable supply before investing in production capacity—creating a classic “chicken-and-egg” scenario. Despite that challenge, interest is growing quickly. The upcoming California Agave Symposium in Santa Barbara on March 23 is expected to bring together growers, distillers, and industry leaders to explore how the crop can scale across the state. The Wolf family is already fielding inquiries from growers and partners looking to get involved. Beyond agave, the conversation also touched on broader industry concerns. Wolf noted that California farmers continue to face pressure from regulations, labor costs, and global competition, particularly from imports produced under less restrictive conditions. While international trade provides year-round availability for consumers, many growers are still seeking a more level playing field. At the same time, technology is becoming a bigger part of agriculture's future. From automation to artificial intelligence, the next generation of farmers—including Haley and Wiley Wolf—is exploring how data and innovation can improve efficiency, sustainability, and decision-making on the farm. Even with ongoing challenges, the Wolf family remains optimistic. Their approach reflects a broader trend across California agriculture: when faced with limited resources, growers continue to adapt, innovate, and search for new opportunities to keep farming viable for the next generation.

Tequila is Mexico's signature spirit, and the focus of our March/April 2026 issue.

The March 17 edition of the AgNet News Hour highlighted the innovative work happening on California's west side as Stuart Wolf of Wolf Farming and Processing joined the program alongside his children Haley Wolf and Wiley Wolf to discuss new crop opportunities, water challenges, and the future of farming in the Central Valley. Wolf Farming and Processing traces its roots back to 1974, when Stuart Wolf's father first started the operation. Today, the company farms a wide range of crops including almonds, pistachios, tomatoes, grains, basil, garlic, onions, cotton, and more. As a second-generation grower now working with the third generation, Wolf says innovation has always been key to surviving the challenges of west side farming. Water availability remains the biggest issue. With federal water allocations recently announced at 15 percent, growers across the region are once again facing uncertainty about how much land they can farm this season. Wolf explained that early allocation decisions are critical because farmers must plan crops, financing, and planting schedules months in advance. One potential solution gaining attention is agave, a desert crop traditionally grown in Mexico that requires very little water. Wolf Farming has been experimenting with agave production in California, planting different varieties and researching how the crop performs under Central Valley conditions. According to the Wolf family, the plant requires only a small amount of water, sometimes just a few inches throughout the growing season, making it a promising option for water-limited areas. Haley Wolf is helping lead the communication and outreach efforts for the project, working with growers, distillers, and industry partners interested in the crop. Interest in California-grown agave is growing quickly, and the upcoming California Agave Council symposium in Santa Barbara will bring together growers and distillers to explore the industry's potential. The crop could eventually support a new California spirits industry similar to tequila or mezcal production in Mexico. However, the industry is still in its early stages. Growers want distilling capacity before planting large acreages, while distillers want to see enough crop volume before investing in facilities. For now, the Wolf family is working to bridge that gap by building nursery stock and expanding plantings. Meanwhile, Wiley Wolf focuses on sustainability projects across the operation, including water management, soil health, solar development, and pollinator habitats. The next generation of the family says modern farming requires constant adaptation as growers balance environmental regulations, labor challenges, and evolving markets. Despite the challenges, Stuart Wolf remains optimistic about the future. For west side growers facing limited water supplies, innovation and diversification could help keep farmland productive for generations to come.
