Podcasts about manhattan cocktail classic

 This is a rebooted version of a seminar named The Science of Citrus that I debuted at the much-missed Manhattan Cocktail Classic in, well, Manhattan waaaay back in 2011 (I say 2015 on the recording, oops). Because it's now online and we can't nose the liquid samples we had back then of decanal, limonene etc., and because I've also edited out the organic chemistry portion that explained what those nosing samples were, I've renamed this The Joy of Citrus. This one has it all - goats in general, dead French writers, Volkswagens, specific Caribbean goats, Coca-Cola and Ramos Gin Fizzes, plus more knowledge about citrus and its twisted family tree than you can shake a stick at. Let me know in the comments if you like it? I have at least two more citrus-related seminars I can re-record, one on curacao, and one on Italian lemons and limoncello.
