Agave Road Trip

Lou Bank and Chava Periban drive through rural Mexico visiting the people who make artisanal mezcal. Tiny distilleries, ancient techniques, communities where agave production is woven into everything. Part travel show, part deep education on spirits, and completely niche in the best way possible. You'll learn about mezcal production methods you never knew existed and meet characters who've been doing this for generations. Not a podcast for everyone obviously, but if you're into mezcal, travel, or Mexican culture, this is a hidden gem. Genuinely passionate hosts.
