    Join me this week with Drew Tobin as we discuss him growing up in The Netherlands, Whisk(e)y, and the evolving luxury market of wines. We also spend a decent amount of time geeking out on Mezcal and Tequila, along with the unsustainability of the growth that they're going through. We had a blast and I guess it shows as this is the longest episode to date!

    Join me this week with James Tran who I met recently on a trip to Spain! We talk about the retail world of things and he helps me understand much more about that channel of sales. It was great to hear about how he and his sister made the jump in 2009 and really set the bar for high quality wine retail at the time. There's so much more that I don't understand but man I learned a lot.
