Mezcal has always been a sort of "outlaw" spirit in terms of how most Americans perceive it. Frankly, I think that lends itself well to those folks who may have been attracted to whiskey for the same reason. To many distillers today though try to pretend that mezcal needs to be chic and luxurious and that often causes the mystique to be lost. On the other hand, there's Ilegal Mezcal, where you have a beautiful bottle and a fabulously unique back story, but it is still firmly planted in the authentic Oaxacan roots that make mezcal special.

That's why I'm so excited to explore tea and tea production. In many ways it parallels my passion for the wine industry since you can simply take a leisurely sip and enjoy it without thinking twice ... or ... you can get super nerdy and nuanced like I have become!
