The agave plant was never destined to become tasteless, cheap tequila.
Brief description: David Suro Piñera is a restaurateur and founder of the Tequila Interchange Project. He lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Review Quotes: The craft of agave spirits is part science and part art, but always about embracing where we come from to understand where we are going. This book, as with David Suro Piñera and Gary Paul Nabhan's life's work, is a true celebration of how a community's respect for its biodiversity can create liquid magic.--José Andrés, chef and owner, José Andrés Group and Oyamel Cocina Mexicana
