This is an "ode to agave," from the making of mezcal to the people who have harvested their own culture around it. We follow our host along with the incredible Jesus "Chucho" Espina as they travel to the outskirts of Oaxaca.
About This Series:
With over 60 actively spoken languages, Mexico is a country deeply shaped by ancient civilizations like the Zapotecs, the Mayas, and the Mexica. Yet when we talk about this country’s history, we often speak about it within the context of the past 500 years—overlooking anything that came before colonization. Through deep dives into forgotten towns, ancestral foods, and indigenous voices, Memorable seeks to uncover Mexico’s deeper layers of identity and feature the stories rarely found in textbooks.
