Florida Beer Podcast - Episode 107: An Introduction to Mezcal with Xicaru

Yes, today we Mexico! The first Mezcal Lauderdale event was held at Le Meridien Dania Beach in May, organized by the same team behind the awesome yearly FemAle Brew Fest. This event brought mezcal (and more) producers and distributors from around Mexico to sample, discuss, and celebrate! As part of the festivities, I spoke to a number of awesome distributors and will be featuring some of them on the podcast. Today, we're speaking to Dennis Barnett, partner for DC Craft Spirits, the exclusive importer of Xicaru mezcal to the US. We spoke with Dennis about the difference between mezcal and its more well-known family member, tequila, the different expressions of Xicaru available, and how they use their profits to give back to the communities making Xicaru.
