Mezcal Winter Camp - Week 2: The Heart of the Agave Mezcal Winter Camp - Week 2Thursday, February 11, 6:00 - 7:30 PM Continue your Mezcal Winter Camp with agave spirit expert Lou Bank for your next dose of Liquid Mexico! In all sessions, attendees will meet via Zoom and discuss different agave spirits with Lou, focusing on a different aspect of the world of agave spirits. The story of agave spirits will be explored each Thursday during February through five carefully selected spirits every week, each one a generous 50mL pour. Week 2 will focus on a single brand, featuring Espadín, Cirial, Madrecuishe, Tepextate and Tobalá, all from Cruz de Fuego, by Margarita Blas and Carlos Mendez Blas, mother-and-son mezcaleros, in their palenque in Santiago Matatlan. Lou Bank is one of the hosts of the Agave Road Trip podcast and founder of SACRED, a USA-based, 501c3 not-for-profit that uses traditional and artisanal agave spirits from rural Mexico to help improve the quality of life in the communities where those spirits are made.
