podcast· 27:50· S8E34Does 818 Tequila Unlock Younger Drinkers for Sazerac?
Joanna and Zach discuss the recent news that Sazerac has taken a minority stake in Kendall Jenner's 818 Tequila. Despite persistent questions about whether celebrity tequila has peaked, as well as the controversy that surrounded the brand's launch, it has been performing well of late, perhaps making it a smart pickup for the New Orleans-based company. Does the price-conscious, youth-oriented brand have the potential for broader reach, and can it stay relevant with the younger cohort it clearly clamors for?

videoWe're Going To America (And Mexico) - Here's The Plan
We're flying to North America for the biggest Bottle Shock adventure yet. This is happening. Here's everything you need to know. The Trip: We're spending two weeks travelling from San Francisco down through California, across to LA, and into Mexico—all while camping in Napa, staying in hostels, and running on frequent flyer points and the kindness of friends.

Okanagan Valley Wines: Resilience in the Face of Adversity
It’s been a rough few years for British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley wine producers. A region once defined by boundless promise is now navigating a new normal marked by climate volatility, crop loss, and uncertainty. And yet, in the glass, hope still speaks and often very eloquently. I recently sat down to taste a handful of wines from two premiere Okanagan wineries. They reinforced an already firmly held conviction of just how important this region is to Canada’s fine wine landscape. But first, let’s talk about the storm the industry is weathering. Fire, Deep Freezes, and the Fight to Survive The Okanagan has endured a brutal string of vintages. It started with the catastrophic 2021 wildfires. That summer, blazes tore through the South Okanagan, shutting down tasting rooms and threatening livelihoods. The aftermath was equally devastating. Many 2021 wines showed clear signs of smoke taint, forcing wineries to declassify or discard entire cuvées. Some producers skipped bottling altogethe

Stuck
I'm stuck in a rut. It has been 49 days since my last post, I have several other writing projects stacked up, waiting to be completed, I am just not happy enough with them yet. I need something to break the log jam. So here is my crazy idea, I am just going to write whatever random boozy thoughts pop into my head each and every day for the rest of July, including when I am in Florida on vacation. Maybe I will find something new in the Austrian newspaper archive that I love to trawl, maybe it will be a few lines of total tosh that just needs someone to comment that I am completely wrong, or right, or that you've been feeling the same but unable to say it. Maybe I won't stress myself out with long form essays, maybe I'll just post pictures of my homebrew, or other good beers I am enjoying, or more likely at the moment, something about the glories of cider in Virginia. Maybe a commenter (remember those?) will ask a question looking for my opinion on something? Who knows? I need to b
podcast· 1h 08m· S10E111Episode 111: Deeply Rooted III Featuring Andre Mack
In this live episode of the Wine & Hip Hop Podcast , Jermaine Stone sits down with Andre Mack at the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa for a conversation that goes far beyond wine. Andre Mack is one of the most influential voices in modern wine, a former Per Se beverage director who went on to build a multi-million dollar wine brand and redefine what it means to be a sommelier. But this conversation isn’t the usual story. Because of their longstanding relationship, Jermaine and Andre discuss topics that aren’t often discussed publicly, from the real mindset behind his success to the decisions that shaped his path outside the traditional wine world. They talk about: • Going from zero wine knowledge to the top of fine dining in under two years • Walking away from the expected path to build something independent • Using hip hop, culture, and storytelling to connect with new audiences • What it actually takes to communicate wine in a way people understand • The current state of the wine industry a
