 Episode 2 focuses on the emergence of tequila as a distinct spirit in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, during the colonial and early independence periods. The episode examines the unique geological and climatic conditions that made the Tequila region ideal for agave cultivation, including volcanic soil, mountain spring water, and highland elevation that created perfect growing conditions for Blue Weber Agave. Listeners follow the stories of pioneering families like the Cuervos and Sauzas who transformed small-scale artisanal distillation into commercial enterprises, developing the techniques and infrastructure that established tequila as separate from other mezcals. The episode explores the technical innovations, political challenges, and economic transformations that occurred as the industry grew from colonial experiment to regional economic engine. Through detailed examination of early distillation methods, the development of skilled craftsmen like jimadores and maestros tequileros, and the gradual establishment of tequila as a protected geographic designation, this episode shows how a small Mexican town became the birthplace of a global industry.
