Episode description as stored
This week, we dive into the world of apples and agave. First, we talk with apple historian Diane Flynt, author of  Wild, Tamed, Lost, Revived: The Surprising Story of Apples in the South,  about what makes apples so magical and the connection apples have to people. She also teaches us the history of apples in the South and tips on what makes a good cider. Then, we turn to the world of Agave spirits with authors Gary Paul Nabhan and David Suro Piñera, where we get an understanding of agave as not just an entity but a “whole rainbow of flavors and fragrance” as well as the fascinating craftsmanship behind mezcal and tequilas. Their latest book is  Agave Spirits: The Past, Present, and Future of Mezcals.
