A beautifully packaged guide to understanding and enjoying agave spirits, poised to take advantage of tequila's hugely burgeoning popularity.

Whether you're a fan of the margarita or Paloma, or prefer to drink the spirit reposado or añejo over ice, tequila is fast becoming the hottest, most interesting spirit on the market today. And yet, tequila is just the beginning of the story when it comes to the fascinating family of agave spirits - you may have heard of mezcal, but have you sampled a bacanora or a raicilla?

Mexico-based photojournalist Anna Bruce explains not just what 'agave' actually means, and the differences between each spirit in the category, but how they're actually made. Her expert tips will explain how to look for agaves to fit your flavor profile, don't break the bank and count as a sustainable choice.

Chapters include:
What is an agave spirit? Understanding the history, the plant plus the difference between Tequila and Mezcal
Agave spirit profiles: deep dives into Tequila, mezcal, raicilla, pulque and bacanora, as well as sotol, with bottle recommendations and stories from the producers themselves
Enjoying the drink: how to read a bottle, plus flight suggestions and 20 cocktail recipes

Anna Bruce is a journalist and photographer specializing in the world of agave spirits. Since completing a project looking at the rise of mezcal for the Mexican Foreign Ministry in 2013, she has continued to work regularly for publications focused on agave spirits. These include Perros y Palenques and The Mezcal Experience, digital content for Sunset, Culture Trip, Hemisphere Magazine, Food & Wine, Mexico News Daily and regular contributions to Mezcalistas.

Her agave photography has been exhibited at venues such as the V&A, LSE and the Mexican Embassy in London. Currently she is based in Oaxaca with her husband and six rescue dogs. Together they lead mezcal experiences with Rambling Spirits.
