Our guest today is Christian Schrader Goette from Agavera, an online shop around Mexican culture. He comes from Guadalajara in the state of Jalisco and we are using this opportunity to talk about spirits from this region - which is so much more than "just" Tequila. Christian is also the organizer of Agave Hub, which will take place in Berlin on October 8th.
