In recent years, the oldest spirit in the Americas has been reinvented as a pricy positional good popular among booze connoisseurs and the mixologists who use it as a cocktail ingredient. Unlike most high-end distillates, most small-batch mezcal is typically produced by and for subsistence farming communities, often under challenging conditions. As Granville Greene spends time with \u003ci\u003emaestros mezcaleros\u003c\/i\u003e, who distill their drinks using local agaves and production techniques honed through generations, mezcal becomes a spirit of contradictions--both a liquid language celebrating village identity and craftsmanship, and a luxury export undergoing a gold-rush-style surge. \u003ci\u003eThe Mezcal Rush\u003c\/i\u003e explores the complications that can arise when an artisanal product makes its way across borders.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Counterpoint","offers":[{"title":"Mezcal Rush: Explorations in Agave Country | Granville Greene | Hardcover | 9781619028449 | Used: Like New | Food Writing 1767177","offer_id":50735009825026,"sku":"1767177","price":24.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/81sUX_54PvL.jpg?v=1791933358","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/mezcal-rush-explorations-in-agave-country","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
