Podcasts about Mezcal

We've talked about agave straws in previous episodes, but I've been spending more time digging into them. And more than that, I've been spending time reading about – and now speaking with – Dr. Sandra Pascoe Ortiz, who has developed a plastic that is compostable and leaves behind no microplastics. So is this a solution for our plastics problem? 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 researcher and chemical engineer Dr. Sandra Pascoe Ortiz. Episode Notes Listen to “Are agave straws really better than plastic?,” “Agave Road Trip,” season 4, episode 37. Read “Microplastics Everywhere,” Harvard Medicine magazine, Spring 2023.

Send us Fan MailA mezcal brand can be more than a label and a flavour profile. We're joined by Alejandra Flores, president and owner of Mayu Mezcal, and her story hits on culture, craft, and a mission that reaches back to Oaxaca and forward to real community impact. She built Mayu to honour her Indigenous grandmother, a woman who never learned to read or write yet still became a fearless businesswoman and lifelong inspiration.We get practical about what separates authentic mezcal from marketing: why organic mezcal certification matters, what “artisanal mezcal” actually means, and how espadin agave and production choices shape a spirit you sip slowly rather than shoot. Alejandra also breaks down mezcal vs tequila, from the regions and agave varieties to the traditional serving ritual with orange slices and sal de chapulín, the famous grasshopper salt from Oaxacan cuisine.If you're curious about entrepreneurship in the spirits industry, this conversation goes behind the curtain on licensing, distributors, and the relationship driven grind of getting bottles into bars, restaurants, casinos, and retailers like Total Wine. Alejandra shares what it's like to be one of the few women mezcaleras, how she keeps momentum through slow growth, and why her long game includes a foundation to support elderly people and stray animals in Oaxaca. Listen, share this with a founder friend, and subscribe plus leave a review so more people can find the show.

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. But … who does that? Where do agave geeks go to have the geekiest conversations?

Adam and Joanna are joined by VinePair Spirits Editor Aaron Goldfarb to break down his list of the 20 Best Mezcals for 2026 and the general state of Mexico's other great agave spirit. While bartenders and aficionados remain deeply enamored with mezcal, commercial success has been limited in scope and confined to a few specific brands. Is the wild, small batch nature of the spirit an insurmountable roadblock to a larger audience? Is the complexity and variety, the very thing that draws some in, a turnoff for most? Plus - what's the deal with pechuga anyhow?

El aguacate para los mexicanos es salud, lujo y alegría. Practicamente todas las gastronomias del páis lo incluyen, ya sea embarrado, partido, en salsa, y yo lo he visto hasta en licuado. Pero pese a su popularidad, rara vez encuentro algún libro o docuento que explore a detalle esta fruta que nos ha acompañado por miles de años.  Por eso hace unos meses decidí viajar a Uruapan, Michoacán, para entrevistar al ingeniero Antonio Oseguera, un experto que lleva tanto tiempo trabajando con aguacate, que algunos de sus colegas aseguran que más que ingeniero se podría decir que es un médico de huertas.  Bienvenidos y espero disfruten este episodio.

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?

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?

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.

IMMERSIVE - The Soundscapes of Oaxaca, Mexico - Colourful Streets, The Zocalo, Busy Markets + A Local Food TourOaxaca, Mexico, had been on my travel list for years, and in 2024, I finally got the chance to experience it for myself. In this immersive soundscape episode of the Winging It Travel Podcast, I take you with me through the colourful streets, lively markets, rooftop cafés and buzzing Zócalo of one of the most atmospheric cities I've ever visited.This episode is all about slowing down and soaking in the vibe of Oaxaca through sound, food and real-time reactions. You'll hear church bells echo through courtyards, market vendors shouting across packed stalls, sizzling street food being cooked fresh in front of me and the energy of locals and travellers filling the city streets from morning until night.I wander through the historic centre trying incredible coffee, exploring famous landmarks like the Oaxaca Cathedral and Templo de Santo Domingo de Guzmán, before diving headfirst into Oaxaca's legendary food scene. From tlayudas and mole to mezcal tastings and local market snacks, this city absolutely lived up to every bit of hype I had built up in my head over the years.Honestly, this became one of my favourite cities I visited during my Central America and Mexico trip. The colours felt brighter, the food tasted richer and the atmosphere was unlike anywhere else I've travelled before. Oaxaca gave me that rare feeling where a destination genuinely exceeds your expectations.So put your headphones in and come walk the streets of Oaxaca with me.

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

Send us Fan MailWe cross borders for a Cinco de Mayo pour that rewrites what whiskey can be when the grain, the place, and the people drive the process. With Sierra Norte's Doug French, importer Bob Murphy, and our Whiskey Doctor Randy Ford, we dig into rainbow corn whiskey, heritage agriculture, and how Oaxaca shapes flavor from seed to barrel.• why Sierra Norte moves from mezcal into 100% corn whiskey as a way to use and protect native Oaxacan corn • how reviving endangered corn varieties supports farmers, creates local jobs, and builds community pride • what “rainbow corn” means and why different corn colours create distinct whiskey flavour profiles • Oaxaca farming realities, rainy-season growing, drought risk, and traditional corn-beans-squash planting • pot still distillation, open-air fermentation with wild yeast, and why slow distilling keeps grain character • barrel strategy with used French oak wine barrels, re-charring, and managing accelerated aging in warm climates • how Mexican whiskey fits into a crowded US market and a Mexico market that still leans toward tequila, mezcal, and Scotch www.scotchybourbonboys.com for all things scotchy bourbon boys. Make sure you check out all of our whiskey. No matter whether you listen to us or watch us, make sure that you leave us good feedback, become members.Mexico doesn't just make tequila and mezcal. We sit down with Doug French of Sierra Norte in Oaxaca, plus importer and distributor Bob Murphy and our own Whiskey Doctor Randy Ford, to unpack a whiskey story built on native corn, hard farming realities, and a distilling philosophy that keeps the grain doing the talking. If you've ever assumed “real whiskey” starts and ends in Kentucky, this one challenges that fast.We get into what makes Sierra Norte's corn whiskeys so distinctive: single-varietal expressions made from different colours of native corn, plus the wild-sounding “rainbow corn whiskey” created from multicoloured kernels that can't be cleanly sorted. Along the way we talk terroir in plain terms: Oaxaca's water scarcity, rainy-season growing, drought risk, and the traditional corn-beans-squash approach that helps fields stay productive. The bigger takeaway is that heritage agriculture and craft spirits can reinforce each other when the market rewards farmers for keeping rare seeds alive.Then we go inside the build: pot still distillation, open-air fermentation with natural yeast, and aging choices designed for balance rather than heavy wood. Doug explains how used French oak wine barrels, re-charring, and careful barrel management can shape a corn-forward whiskey in a warmer climate where aging can move faster. We also touch the business side of world whiskey, from the oversupplied US market to why whiskey remains a smaller category inside Mexico, and how distribution and online shipping help niche bottles find the right drinkers.If you're curious about Mexican whiskey, corn varietals, and what “Whiskey Without Borders” really tastes like, press play, share this with a whiskey friend, and leave us a review so more people can find the show.

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.

Arrancamos el martes con algo del cine mexicano compitiendo por el premio Mezcal y revisamos Celestino, en compañia de Camila Doroteo (https://www.instagram.com/atsiverresplandor/) y Emiliano Ayala (https://www.instagram.com/multimedia_gdl/)¿Solo en México se hacen malos guiones para películas que no llegan a nada y que debieron quedar en una charla de borrachera en la Condesa? Bélgica dice "yo también puedo" con la cinta de Hans Bryssinck. ¿Quién es celestino? Fuera del título y el detonante de una búsqueda, es algo que no importa. Tenemos a Iván, un periodista que está tomándose un año sabático en México, y de pronto se encuentra una cartera con una identificación en el hotel en el que se está quedando. Ahí mismo hay un fragmento de periódico que habla del tal Celestino, que al parecer es un escritor nahual con poderes míticos, mágico, musicales dignos de una historia, por lo cual Iván hace lo que cualquier periodista sin idea debe hacer: lanzarse a la aventura a un pueblo abandonado para encontrarlo. Al llegar ahí, no se encuentra al famosos Celestino pero sí a su familia, y se quedará a vivir con ellos (pagando una módica cantidad, desde luego), mientras espera el regreso del perdido, y confronta los prejuicios de las hermanas. La película sabe que tiene un par de ideas pero no sabe cómo desarrollarlas entre tanto diálogo malo y al final no llega a nada. Por momentos se plantea una especie de thriller que podría ser interesante, con sótanos secretos, figuras religiosas, un pueblo que podría ser amenazante para un extraño, pero todo se diluye con cosas tan chafas como que una de las hermanas le dice al personaje que se parece a Jesucristo (lo cual ni al caso), y la temporalidad en la narrativa no cierra, ya que nuestro Iván se queda encerrado en un lugar siendo incapaz de escapar, padeciendo lo que la audiencia: una historia que no lleva a nada. Creo que la charla que tuvimos sobre la película fue más interesante que la cinta misma.

Seguimos con la cobertura desde el Festival Internacional de Cine en Guadalajara toca ver algo de documental mexicano que también compite por el premio Mezcal con el caso de Querida Fátima.La gran ganadora del premio Mezcal en esta edición del FICG es el documental de Querida Fátima, encabezado por una colectiva en donde se encuentran a personas como Lorena Gutiérrez, su Kim, Davi Merchan, Jesús Quintana, Rodrigo Reyes y Dawn D. Valadez como sus directores y se explora la tragedia de una joven que a sus 12 años fue desaparecida y asesinada por tres vecinos. Su madre, Lorena Gutiérrez busca una audiencia con la presidenta para reclamar por casos como este y los cientos de feminicidos que se llevan a cabo en nuestro país año tras año. La cinta hace recreaciones de distintos momentos, como cuando se hizo la búsqueda inicial al darse cuenta de la desaparición de la joven, a la par que la narrativa principal se enfoca en los cinco días previos a la solicitud de audiencia con la presidenta, con un plantón afuera de palacio nacional, mientras que eventos como el Día Internacional de la Mujer van a correr. El reclamo de varias madres sobre sus hijas desaparecidas ante la primera mujer presidente, en una fecha significativa debería cargar poder, sin embargo, como el documental, no termina de lograrlo. Mientras que el desarrollo es correcto y hay agregados con valores de producción, la narrativa no logra desenvolverse y aunque la cinta ganó un premio importante en el festival, me pregunto si es por la temática y su importancia o por la calidad de la cinta. Dicho sea de paso que lo que me tocó ver en cine nacional este año fue bastante débil, aunque me perdí de varias cintas que no estuvieron en las fechas que tuve oportunidad de cubrir, y aunque el documental tiene méritos propios, su manejo cae en algo que ya parece formulario en el documental nacional.

Funky rhythms, driving basslines, and vibrant melodic touches flow effortlessly together, creating a refreshing yet powerful journey. It's a mix that feels bright and punchy while maintaining depth — much like a well-balanced Mezcal Margarita that delivers both intensity and smoothness in every sip. Emerging from Türkiye's dynamic electronic music scene, Ece has built her reputation with sets that blend Afro House rhythms, House and Tech House grooves, and melodic atmospheres. Since starting at 19, she has played prestigious stages and shared lineups with artists like Lexer, Stephan Jolk, Chris IDH, Sasson, Franc Fala, and Kitty Amor, continuously refining her sound. Her productions on labels such as Get Physical, We're Here, Sudam, Rikodisco, and Cafe De Anatolia reflect that same layered approach. Like a well-balanced Mezcal Margarita, this mix is smoky, vibrant, and full of character — refreshing, energetic, and crafted to linger long after the last sip. Cheers!

Santos Serfaty, co-founder of Zancudo Mezcal, has traversed the world while working in many restaurants and bars. This transnational lifestyle has led to him learning many languages, and learning many lessons about life. Nomadic in ways, and tremendously ground in others, Santos has settled in Mexico City to finally find his home. Through his love of food and cocktails, Santos was introduced to mezcal and a direct path to Oaxaca. Afters years of blending, tasting, and exploring, Zancudo Mezcal was finally born. We chat drums, proofing, and design.

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? Whatever the case, I welcome Claudia to 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.

One of the most extravagant expressions I've had in a long time is Mauricio Cantú's Sotol, produced in Cuatrociénegas, Coahuila.

On this episode, I sit down with Amal Flores, owner/operator of Hermanito, to talk about the restaurant's new location at the corner of Broadway and Lincoln Blvd. in Santa Monica, CA, in the former Swingers Diner space. We get into how this new location came together, what it means to step into such an iconic spot, and how the team has worked to pay homage to the history of the space while creating something fresh for the neighborhood. It's a great conversation about vision, respect for local history, and what it takes to bring new life to a well-known Santa Monica location. We also get to try some of the Hermanito branded Mezcal!

But … the violence around the apprehension and killing by the Mexican government of cartel leader “El Mencho” in February 2026 led to a more heated public conversation on the issue.

We have award winning actor Bryan Cranston on the podcast this week! He's the star of Breaking Bad, Malcolm in the Middle, and currently starring in the West End in the play All My Sons, and he's popped round for lunch before his show that evening. We covered everything from working with Tom Hanks, his love of TV dinners, creating a Mezcal brand with Aaron Paul, embracing his fatherly role on every set, his daily routine for London's West End, filming The Studio with Seth Rogen & Catherine O'Hara, and we hear what it was like when he tried mushrooms in Las Vegas during filming! Plus we hear possibly the strangest nostalgic smell any guest has ever revealed on the podcast before… Talking to Bryan was a complete delight, he has the most soothing voice and we could listen to his stories for hours. Basically he needs his own podcast! You can catch Bryan's play All My Sons at the Wyndham's Theatre until the 7th of March, you don't want to miss it. Hosted on Acast.

With a history spanning 2,000 years and still playing a vital role in global commerce, the oak barrel, as correspondent Bill Whitaker discovers, is much more than just a container. Barrels are a vital ingredient, especially in the production of Bourbon whiskey – giving it all of its distinctive color and much of its taste. Whitaker takes us inside the largest maker of wooden barrels to glimpse the magic and mystique of this essential tradition. International crime groups are finding new, sophisticated ways to infiltrate the global supply chain online, stealing hundreds of millions of dollars of goods per year. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reports on the growing threat of cargo theft and how 24,000 bottles of Guy Fieri's tequila vanished on their way to the warehouse. Mezcal is having its moment. This handcrafted Mexican spirit, made from agave, has seen exponential growth in popularity and production. Correspondent Cecilia Vega travels to Oaxaca's countryside and meets the mezcaleros laboring to quench the world's thirst for mezcal.
