The Tim Atkin Cork Talk Podcast
Arts:Food
Harold McGee is one of America’s leading food writers, with a particular expertise in the science of cooking. His brilliant latest tome, Nose Dive, is about what he calls the “osmosocm”, the world of smells, which is very relevant to us wine drinkers too. I caught up with him from San Francisco recently to chat about the grouse that inspired him to write the book, how to train your nose, his favourite and least favourite aromas, smell’s link with memory and the role of the brain in processing information from our odour receptors.
To read more about Harold, have a look at his website. You can also follow him on Instagram @mcgee.onfood.onsmells
Don’t forget, Cork Talk is now available on Spotify as well as on my website. You can listen to this week’s episode, plus my back catalogue of interviews with some of the wine world’s most extraordinary figures.
