The TRUTH About Tequila Most People Still Don’t Understand | Adam Fodor Interview

from Tasting Tequila with Brad · host Bradley Niccum

What if everything most people think they know about tequila is wrong? In this episode of Tasting Tequila with Brad, I sit down with Adam Fodor, co-founder of the International Tequila Academy, for one of the deepest tequila conversations I’ve had on the channel. We talk tequila education, additives, tequila myths, distillery tours, tequila sommeliers, production methods, NOM confusion, tequila culture, and why most people still think tequila is just shots, salt, and lime. Adam shares his journey from Hungary to Mexico, how the International Tequila Academy was created, and why understanding tequila goes way beyond just “smooth” or “additive free.” We also dive into tequila tasting, sensory training, distillery experiences, tequila business mistakes, and how tequila culture is evolving around the world. If you love additive-free tequila, traditional tequila production, tequila education, tequila distillery tours, or want to understand tequila at a deeper level, this interview is packed with value. Topics Covered: • International Tequila Academy • Tequila Sommelier Courses • Additives in Tequila • Tequila Myths Debunked • NOM Numbers Explained • Tequila Distillery Tours • Sergio Cruz & Distillation • Cascahuín, Tapatio, Viva Mexico & More • Why Tequila Tastes Different • Tequila Sensory Training • Traditional vs Modern Tequila Let me know in the comments: What tequila changed the way YOU think about tequila? #Tequila #AdditiveFreeTequila #TequilaReview #TequilaEducation #InternationalTequilaAcademy
