Podcasts about Agave

For centuries, Mexico has capitalized on growing and harvesting a plant often distilled into Tequila or Mezcal. It's called agave and it thrives on little water and a lot of heat. Now, with a California law restricting water use on farms, Valley farmers are looking to agave as a new revenue stream on their land. Reporter: Rachel Livinal, KVPR California's highest court is weighing whether a sheriff broke the law when he seized hundreds of thousands of ballots earlier this year. The court heard oral arguments yesterday. Reporter: Madison Aument, KVCR The Trump administration ended a long standing agreement that kept ICE out of workplaces that the U.S. Department of LABOR is investigating.

Mezcal can get very confusing for the average consumer. You've got regular Mezcal, Mezcal Artesenal, and Mezcal Ancestral. And then there are variations among those, including Joven, Reposado, Anejo, abocado con, destilado con, and on and on. But this, it seems, is part of the heritage of Mezcal — at least according to a 1904 book titled Diccionario de Aztequismos o Sea Catalogo de las Palabras del Idioma Nahuatl, Azteca ó Mexicano, Introducidas al Idioma Castellano Bajo Diversas Formas. (That's Dictionary of Aztecisms, or a Catalog of Words from the Nahuatl, Aztec, or Mexican Language Introduced into the Spanish Language in Various Forms, and, yes, that is the longest title ever for a book.) In that book, there are ten categories of mezcal. Want to know what they are…? 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 with special guest Linda Sullivan‍ ‍of seynasecreto. Episode Notes Read Diccionario de Aztequismos o Sea Catalogo de las Palabras del Idioma Nahuatl, Azteca ó Mexicano, Introducidas al Idioma Castellano Bajo Diversas Formas, by Cecilio Agustín Robelo (1904), for the source of the quoted passage in this episode: There are several types of mezcal. Mezcal: Heads of medium-sized maguey plants—from which pulque cannot be extracted—are roasted, crushed, and steeped in the appropriate amount of water; the resulting ferment is then ready for distillation. Mezcal corriente (Standard Mezcal): Distilled from a mixture of water and cooked chaparro maguey (known in the Mixtec region as Yahuytzingu), which has been fermented in animal-skin bags; white pulque is often added to the mixture. Mezcal flojo or cola (Weak Mezcal or "Tail" Mezcal): The same liquor as above, but resulting from a second distillation. Mezcal de pulque: Distilled from a mixture of tlachique pulque and piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar) syrup, fermented in animal-skin bags. Mezcal resacado de cola (Redistilled "Tail" Mezcal): Produced by redistilling mezcal cola to improve its quality; the volume is reduced to one-quarter of the original. Mezcal resacado corriente (Redistilled Standard Mezcal): Produced by redistilling mezcal corriente; the volume is reduced to one-quarter. Mezcal de cabezas (Head Mezcal): Obtained by distilling the liquid in which the maguey heads were fermented. Mezcal de sustancia (Substance Mezcal): Obtained by distilling the fermented juice of the maguey heads together with cooked chicken meat or veal trotters. Mezcal de chorrera (Stream Mezcal): This name is given to mezcal produced in San Luis Potosí using specialized distillation apparatuses that yield a continuous stream from the still. Mezcal de campanilla (Bell Mezcal): Also produced in San Luis Potosí. Mr. José Segura, in his monograph on the maguey, states: "The still used to produce vino de campanilla is the most imperfect and curious apparatus imaginable: it consists of a somewhat elongated earthenware pot—barely protruding from the hearth in which it is embedded—covered by another inverted pot; the latter's open bottom holds a small copper vessel filled with cold water, which serves as a condenser. Suspended inside the apparatus, beneath this vessel, is an earthenware bowl—or apaste, as it is locally known—which catches the alcohol condensing on the bottom of the vessel. It is to this specific arrangement that the spirit owes the name campanilla." In several European countries, mezcal is known as "Mexican Gin," while in some U.S. states, it is referred to as "Mexican Brandy." It is a mistake to call the plant itself maguey; the specific maguey from which it is derived is called mexcalmetl—that is, "mezcal maguey." Botanically, it is classified as Agave mexicana (Lamarck) or Agave wizlizeni (Engelmann); Tequila-style mezcal is produced from these varieties. There is also Agave decipiens, which is harvested in Texas, New Mexico, and Chihuahua.

On today's podcast we're talking about Mexico's tequila industry, a booming sector that is centered in the state of Jalisco. Tequila exports tallied to over three and a half billion dollars in 2025. Tequila is traditionally made by chopping down spiky agave plants, roasting the plants' heavy cores, mashing the sweet-smelling pumpkin orange pulp for fermentation and distillation. It is now one of Mexico's most iconic products. On today's podcast host Nathaniel Parish Flannery speaks to Ted Genoways, the author of the new book Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo And The Bloody Struggle For Mexico's Spirit.

There was a time (about a week ago) when posting to social-media that you would only drink “additive-free” was a way to say, I know Tequila. Now it feels like “milled by tahona” is the new “additive-free.” And in the same way that the additive-free-signaling actually signaled the opposite to me, the tahona-signaling does, too. And we talk about why 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 with journalist Ted Genoways, author of Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo and the Bloody Struggle for the Spirit of Mexico. Episode Notes Read Ted's book Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo and the Bloody Struggle for the Spirit of Mexico! Read Annals of the Ministry of Development of the Mexican Republic, 1881, for the source of this quote: "We shall now review samples of the mezcal spirit—often referred to as ‘wine'—extracted from certain varieties of the maguey or agave plant. This alcoholic liquor is produced in various parts of the country under different names; however, the variety most highly regarded both in Mexico and abroad is that which originates in Jalisco, specifically in Tequila. There are various types or grades of this spirit produced—such as común, pechuga, simple, and double—as well as specially prepared varieties, such as almond-flavored (*almendrado*) and orange-flavored (*naranjado*). "Don Jesús Flores, owner of one of the finest and most renowned Tequila distilleries, presented samples of the various types produced at his facility—including simple, double, pechuga, and almendrado—in two large flasks and several other large bottles. Mr. Flores's products enjoy an excellent reputation both domestically and internationally; his entire output is consumed as soon as it is produced, and his spirits were the only ones awarded a first-class medal at the first Guadalajara Municipal Exhibition. Don Sabás Cruz presented samples of pechuga spirit, a product that had previously won an award at the recent exhibition in France. Don Carlos G. Sancho also presented a very fine pechuga spirit.” Shout outs this episode to Bar Sotano, Monte Alban Mezcal, Jose Cuervo Tequila, Sauza Tequila, Tequila Patron, Mezcal Tosba, and Marco Ochoa of Gusto Historico!

California Farm Bureau's Ag Alert highlights growing interest in agave as a drought-tolerant crop with potential beyond distilled spirits.

“You just do it by the old way. It's not difficult. It's not fast, but it's not difficult. If we make it fast, you have to correct a lot of things. When you give the real time for a distillation, you get all the flavors. Give it the time, the real time that it needs to make it.” That's Alvaro Fernandez, founder of El Acabo Raicilla and Asil Raicilla de la Sierra. We profile those brands — and talk about the Raicilla denomination of origin — in this episode of Agave Road Show!

In the latest HortWeek podcast, editor Matt Appleby speaks with Andy Mills, head gardener at Blenheim Palace. Since August 2022, Mills has led a 10-year restoration of Blenheim's 90-acre gardens. He reveals how his team is balancing 300 years of horticultural heritage with the realities of a changing climate.The renovation has also thrown up unexpected surprises and discoveries. Partly due to a surprising lack of historical records, Andy has unearthed whole new garden areas by exploring neglected corners. One foray through the undergrowth revealed an ornate bridge and the long-forgotten Cascade Garden:"I came across a bowl... imagine like half the size of a tennis court, a beautiful ornate stone bowl. And then there was a couple of little grottoes like druid cells and a subterranean cave with a spring in it."Historical accuracy must now balance with climate resilience. Mills is actively adapting Blenheim's planting for hotter, drier conditions replacing "thirsty fuchsias" with exotics like Agave, Astelia, and Hedychium. Similarly with trees, Mills is shifting to smaller, highly ornamental species like Paulownia and Catalpa.Perhaps the most controversial change has been Mills's decision to leaves 60 acres of grassland to grow long, which while reviving dormant wildflowers and boosting pollinators, has drawn questions from some visitors."I love those conversations with people... they say, 'We're not used to this.' Well, you should be. This is what we gave to the world."Conversely, Mills is reversing years of unmanaged laurel growth that blocked key vistas, restoring the intended "English Versailles".Ultimately, Mills hopes this restoration shifts public perception. "We're known as Blenheim Palace and Gardens, not just Blenheim Palace," he states. "At the end of 10 years, that's where I'd like to be." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Before science was invented, things were confusing. And, to be fair, for several decades into the birth of science, it was still confusing. Don't believe us? Check out Scientific American magazines from the late 1800s — especially this one article about scientists tasting Mezcal and Tequila for the first time. 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 with special guest Linda Sullivan‍ ‍of seynasecreto. Episode Notes Read Scientific American, No. 1096,January 2, 1897, for the source of the epic quote in this episode: Not only does the maguey plant give the sap for the drink pulque, but its roots , distilled, yield much more powerful intoxicants, mescal and tequila. And the heart of another variety of the same plant is cut out, roasted and put through a process of distillation to make still another drink. Mescal is described as tasting like a mixture of gasoline, gin and electricity, Tequila is even worse, and is said to incite murder, riot and revolution. A very small quantity of tequila is a drink. Experts advise it to be taken with a grain of salt, literally — the salt to be placed on the tongue first. Several Michigan editors who lately visited the sister republic wandered into a "cantina" in the city of Puebla one evening and called for a drink apiece of the tequila. Each took a taste, felt his hair stand erect, his toes curl up and his skin wrinkle all over his body and was wise enough to leave the glass unfinished. Not one of them wished that time that Providence had endowed him with greater capacity.

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.

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.

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.

“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.

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.

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. So what am I missing, where is the truth, and how do I reconcile my own hypocrisy? 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 with special guest Linda Sullivan of seynasecreto and wisdom from raicillero Paulo Rodriguez and Ana Elvia Rodriguez Lorenzo.

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? And what makes them different from the good agaves? Brix? Years? Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

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. It's a Deja Lou 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.

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.
