Episode description
Like many agricultural products, agaves have developed a complex relationship with humans over millennia.
Some agaves were chosen to make rope, others to extract pulque and maybe the luckiest of them all to create mezcal.
But there've been many other more subtle ways in which people have chosen their favorite agaves to deal with. In this conversation with Fabio Raya we talk about the agaves that were favored in Brazil versus those that we decided to love in Mexico.
