/ Curating a diverse mezcal portfolio
Justin stopped by to talk about his work as a spirits specialist and educator at Skurnik wines and his unique approach to working with agave distillate brands.
We discussed how industry and community are not mutually exclusive and how a diverse and robust portfolio can create the space to bring on smaller lesser known brands.
Justin tells us the stories of Mezcal Tosba and La Medida Mezcal, 2 brands producing amazing mezcal but with very different origins.
We also talked about the trend to rest agave spirits in glass and he brought a really interesting mezcal expression for us to try that included hongos!
Justin Lane Briggs is a Spirits specialist and educator for Skurnik Wines.
