Instagram Live Repost: Talking Mezcal With Justin Briggs

I just reunited with my old co-worker Justin Briggs on Instagram Live to talk about the exciting new Cuishe Mezcales that have just hit the California market. Working with some of the biggest names in the business, like Berta Vasquez, Cuishe started as more of a mezcalería before transitioning into a full-fledged label.

Once you hear Justin talk about the capón and how removing it concentrates the sugar into a an agave piña (and that Cuishe has a mezcal made entirely from super ripe capón-ed agaves), I don’t see how you’ll be able to resist trying a bottle for yourself.
