Emma Janzen is your guide to the bartender’s best kept secret, the spirit everyone has been missing out on and it’s called Mezcal. See what sets this cousin of tequila except for the rest of the pack.

Produced in Mexico for centuries but little known elsewhere until latest years, mezcal has captured the imagination of spirits enthusiasts with its astonishing complexities. And whilst big liquor is beginning to jump aboard the bandwagon, most mezcal is still artisanal in nature, produced the use of small-batch techniques handed down for generations, frequently with agave plants harvested in the wild.

â??Sign up for creator Emma Janzen through Mezcal as she presents an engaging primer on all things related to the spirit; its long history, the craft of distilling it, and a thorough guide to a number of the most common agaves used in production and how they shape the resulting spirit. In addition, top mezcal bars across the USA and Mexico contribute a selection of nearly fifty cocktails that accentuate its distinguishing qualities.

Beautifully produced and authoritatively written, Mezcal is the definitive guide to exploring and unraveling the mysteries of this peculiar handcrafted spirit. An Editors’ Pick for Amazon Best Books of the month of July 2017.
