Episode 27 – The Tequila Hombre – with expert Mark Cherney is live!
It’s a new episode of Two Idiots and an Expert! Kops and Lee kick this one off with some scheduling info and editing details about Episode 26, The Inclusionist, with Simma Lieberman. And then talk about…
– Guru Zush let Lee know the Sperminator was in the news (01:25); at Zush’s encouragement Lee tried to ride that wave on Facebook and Twitter, driving people to listen to his episode.
– There are some new guests coming up (03:00) and people are listening. Feedback on the The Inclusionist episode has been positive, the subject matter is very complicated. Corey thinks Lee is too agreeable with the guest.
– Lee wants Kops to watch Christpoher Nolan’s movie Tenet (07:36), Lee watched it already but there is a lot there to talk about. Lee heard someone talk about the movie on a podcast, it's very complicated.
This week’s guest is Tequila expert Mark Cherney (thanks Joel for the recommendation!). Kops and Lee talk (10:11) a bit about their history with Tequila – bad experiences early in life with bad Tequila and what they know about good vs bad Tequila. The tequilas they are tasting are Arete Blanco ($22), Cascahuin Reposado ($54), and an Espanita Añejo ($33), along with a Mezcal, La Luna Cupreata ($38).
Expert Mark Cherney (Youtube channel) joins the boys to blow their minds with his Tequila knowledge (21:36). He breaks down the difference between a blanco, reposado and anejo Tequila, the organization monitoring the Tequila and the Blue Weber Agave plant. Kops and Lee taste the Tequilas as Mark talks about all things Tequila and Mezcal, his history and the projects he is working on. Mark curates the spirits on the website https://fermentandstill.com/ and sells bottles from special barrels at https://tequilabarrelcollective.com/.
The boys come back (01:32:10) and are nice and toasty from the amazing Tequila. Kops is zooted and learned a ton. Your Idiots had a ton of fun talking to Mark!
Make sure to check out Mark on his Youtube channel and his websites, Tequila Barrel Collective and Ferment and Still. Thank you very much Mark for coming on the podcast!
